Most any power tool has a gearbox which is generally fairly easy to access. A few screws or bolts, and some fresh grease, and it'll be hummin like new

Make sure those 4 bolts are tight all of the time, if they loosen it will wear out the gears in a few minutes.

Allways! Check the lugbolts on your cars too, haha ; ) I did that one over a year and a half ago Eesa and it's still hummin like new : )
Here's a 50 year old Craftsman sander I did just a couple days ago
That's some 50 year old grease there

Dug most of it out with a small flat screwdriver

Filled it up with new grease on a putty knife
