Default what to look for on a used vortech

I am looking at a used vortech supercharger, with a 6lb pully setup. It has some miles on it maybe about 20,000 or less. I was wondering what i should look for to see if the charger is in good working condition such as bearings, the fan, etc. Thanks for your help
