    I for the life of me can't figure out how to slide them. Air release but no lever to pull like on the Danes I've pulled.

    Trailer brakes set...releasing the brakes releases the pins to lock.

    Some air release trailers I have pulled have a knob facing down that is behind the slider carriage that pushes in (or up) to retract the pins, and pull out to set the pins.

    there’s a button somewhere, you have to get under there and find it. you also must leave the trailer brakes on via the red knob. otherwise the pins will not release. ive not pulled a hyundai trailer but the air lock buttons on our trailers are at the front of the axle set near where the manual handles are.

    Yea its a button. Darn thing was froze up real good so 1st look around it didn't budge at all. Got up to Lowell mass last night and freed it up with the end of a load bar.
