Abstract
Emergency brakes in track-type vehicles are usually applied by actuating either foot pedals or a hand brake, or both. The present invention provides an emergency brake which can stop and hold the vehicle due to movement of a single pedal (45) without the need to operate any other controls (16) on the vehicle.
