I have read about FMD's having a decompression button and that you use it when turning them over with the hand crank. I have a 1954 FMD and with a Hand crank but I can't find the decompression button. I just read on Fordson Tractor Pages that after SN 1290291 it was moved from the rear to the front. Mine is SN 1280707 any help out there?

Decompression lever is at the front of the rocker cover.
