How to insure clear root access to used Mac I want to buy?

Am interested in a G4 for sale on Craigslist. What do I need to do to assure I will have full, clear ownership; and to assure the previous owner will not have remote, or other means to access my purchase. Any advice or references to web site that discusses this topic is appreciated.

The computer should come with original install OS disks.

Do a fresh OS install when you receive the computer
