Bleed screw looks like a bolt by the trumpet. Turn out to bleed, in when done. I can snip procedure from 3020 manual tomorrow if you need it. Make sure you get bleed screw closed when done or you will lose brakes soon after engine shuts off.

Email is open.

Edit to add:
Here is the bleeding procedure. If you don't have a helper and need to bleed them by yourself it works to use a small ratchet strap from the pedals up to the front axle to keep the pedals depressed while you tighten the bleed screws. Make sure the bleed screws are not bottomed out on the jam nuts, I had that on a tractor I bought used and there were no breaks if the engine was off. I replaced the bleed screws, bled the brakes, and now they will hold if you shut the engine off.

There is a bleed screw for each brake. Left side not shown in the picture.
