Draining fuel pump to release water

[Skybird12209]

Good evening,

I have a 2014 New Holland Boomer 37 compact tractor. I have only had it for a bit more than a year and am still learning about it. In the Owner/Operator Manual it addresses how to drain the fuel pump to rid the tank of any residual water. The instructions make it sound simple, like, unscrew the bottom of the fuel pump and drain some fuel and then "pump" the top to reset the pump. I checked the pump today and only see a "wingnut." Is this what I need to loosen to let the fuel drip out? I don't want to do something that is not correct. Any ideas or suggestions? The manual makes it look so simple, but nothing in this tractor is!!

Sure it's the fuel pump and not the fuel filter you are supposed to drain? Most fuel water separators are the bottom of the fuel filter.

Well I guess it could be the fuel filter. But I think it has an electrical wire leading from it, so maybe I am looking at the wrong thing? I will look tomorrow! Thanks! It is supposed to have a plunger on the top and just feeling around today, it did not seem like there was a soft rubber boot that I expected. I find the Owners Manual not well written and the pics are awful. I am looking for a better maintenance manual to download.
