Buying a used commercial machine.

I stumbled across an ad for a used Faema Compact Smart 2 at a very good rate. This would be for my own personal use at home. What questions should I ask before purchasing it. I'm planning on asking what the backflush schedule was like, when were the gaskets last changed, how long was it used in a commercial environment, and when it was last serviced, but after that I don't know what else I should look for. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
