What should I check before buying a skid loader?

I'm thinking of buying a skid loader soon, what are the most important things I should check before making a purchase?

@USVeteran, if you're buying used, Ritchie Bros. is a solid place to start, just make sure to check the hydraulics, tires ,and overall condition, and don't skip the inspection reports.

Look for signs of wear and tear. Check the engine, hydraulic system, and tracks/wheels for any damage.
