Wheel Brake Not Staying Set

[Checkmate]

I have tried many times to set the toe brakes by holding them down and pulling the brake handle only to find that the brakes just release. Once in a while I get them to work, but their is nothing I am doing different. I tried pulling the hydraulic handled a few times as someone suggested to get a little hydraulic pressure in the system, but this does not help either. Is there something I might be doing wrong? I have set brakes in an actual aircraft like a Cessna 172 where you step on the toe brakes then pull the handle and release the handle and toe brake stay set. Not sure what I am doing wrong, but I just can't get the brake to stay on. I usually just hold the toe brake with my feet, but when going through the training it would be nice if I can figure out what I'm doing wrong.

2nd - Press the toe brakes

3dr  - Release the toe brakes
