Deere 2940 brake housing bleeder valve

My brakes are not responding. The hydraulic fluid was very low and I suspect there may be air in the brake lines. I can't seem to locate the bleeder valve on the brake housing. The repair manual says that there is one, but it doesn't show it on the schematic.

This is not the brake valve housing diagram. I forgot to indicate that this is not a sound guard body as the brake valves are different.
 
(quoted from post at 06:54:56 09/12/21) Why would you want to bleed it at the brake valve? You want to expel the air at the end, which is the trumpet housing.

Of course, you are totally correct. It makes sense. My rproblem was that the techinical manual at page 60-10-8 specifically says that the valve is on the brake valve housing. I found the bleeders, unfortunately that wasn't the problem. After pushing down on the brake lever and closing the bleeder valve, the brake lever stayed down and could only be manually pushed back into position. I don't think my problem is air in the brake line. Thanks for your help.
