CSX4753 help with brakes

I purchased CSX47xx and had it delivered today. The brakes are terrible. The pedal is rock hard and you have to push a lot to get the car stop. It won’t lock the tires up. Really, it’s not safe. Could someone please explain the braking system so I can try to figure out where to start. I don’t see a regular brake booster. So how do they work? Thanks!
