Default How to checkover a used plunge router?

a used Trend FT2000e router has been offered to me, all seems
there incl instructions!

Any opinions on the machine?

Also it appears to be a bargain so what checks would be advised
before buying?

The main thing with most mains power tools is to check there is no excessive sparking from the brushes.
This indicates worn brushes or more likely the armature is shagged.
The tool is usually then worthless as spares are so costly.
