Changing the fuel filter in a F/NH 1520

How do I bleed the fuel after changing the fuel filter? I would look in my operators manual, but I don't have one and couldn't find one that I could download. Any help would be appreciated.

On the filter is a bleed screw. It has a hex head and a Phillips indent. Turn the fuel on, open screw and bleed the air out. Next on the injection pump, there is another similar screw at the top behind the injection lines. Repeat bleed procedure. As long as you only changed the filter, the filter bleed is really all that is necessary, but the pump bleed will assure problem free starting.

Thanks much - that worked much MUCH better than the last time when I just cranked and cranked the starter. That took forever and couldn't be good for it.
