Hi Mark, I believe the 464 is same as 574 except it has a D206 German Diesel with a Bosch fuel injection pump. There is no primer pump or bleed screws on the injection pump.
There is a bleed screw on the top of the secondary fuel filter (filter closest to front of engine). The bleed screw is the one with the screw driver slot in the head. Loosen the bleed screw a few turns until fuel starts to bubble out, leave open until there is a steady stream with no air bubbles. Close bleed screw. Now put the stop/start/run lever to the start position and open the throttle about 1/2 way and now try to start the tractor. Most times it will start but if it doesn't start or give any indication of starting within 30 secs of cranking then you will have to loosen one of the injector lines at the back of the injection pump. Stop cranking the engine and loosen the injector line nut about 2 turns, BE CAREFUL HIGH PRESSURE DIESEL FUEL CAN CAUSE SEVERE INJURY. Now attempt to start the engine, if engine starts then stop engine and tighten injector line nut.

There are some other methods I have used but the above should get it started.

Good luck
