If you apply the emergency brake with a foot pedal it probably cable operated. As mentioned by FredV the cable may be seized or the cable could be frayed. You will need to find the location of the emergency brake and have someone operate the E brake to see if there is any movement at the brake. Lube any pivot points you see. If all else fails call Frightliner ask how the E brake operates. Being it's air over hydraulic brakes there may be a procedure that needs to be followed to set the brake I may be wrong but I think your chassis is actually a John Deere before Freightliner bought it.
