I am looking at a 2705 to purchase. The motor is solid and all gauges work, but it has no brakes, none. The price he is asking sounds resonable, and would still give me room to repair the brakes. Are brakes a reccuring problem with this model? And if I do have someone take it apart what other things should be replaced or looked at while tore down?

I think you might want to check up under the hood.
I think the 1100 series had a canister like a truck for fluid... I cant rember if our 2705's did or not... or the 2805's ...

I know the 3600series has a feed line from the hydralic system.. (ours leaks off all the time--you have to pump it up if it sits a day)

I don’t know the MF line well enough to know that the 2705 would have disk brakes similar to the 65 that I bought that had pedals that felt like good did not stop the tractor. This caused me to have the same questions about Massy brakes that you have. The seller over simplified the problem but I’m not sure he really understood it. The problem was evidently the tractor had set unused for an extended period. The brake discs (4 of them, which rotate with the drive axels) had been in contact for so long with the stationary plates, that some of the non metal disc material transferred to the stationary stopping plates. This material stuck to and left an imprint of the disc on the plates. When the unit was back in use the imprinted material created a glaze on the plate. Because of this the disc did not create friction when forced against the plate. I replaced the discs (which were worn little) a couple seals and four paper gaskets. Job took me longer than it should have but manual saved my bacon.
