    bought this in the sale and am wondering how to brake without dumping into emergency
    The manual says you have to hold the apply for three secs to go to EB but either half a second or double tapping the apply seems to dump the brakes to emergency

    I notice the EP from AP has just disabled the emergency so maybe it’s not workable?

    I think they changed it so you use the Backspace
    The AP version, great pack, says Use the Red Button for an Emergency Application

    The original problem was the Brakes would go in to Emergency if you did not keep watching the Gauge and the Brake handle would not spring back to the Central Hold position like on the Class 66.
