Ford 1210 ran out of fuel

I have a Ford 1210 diesel. Right after I finished cutting my lawn, I checked the fuel tank and although the fuel was low, it was not empty. So I let the tractor sit while running for 2 minutes and suddenly it gave out. I think there was not enough gas. But when I filled the tank back up a little black smoke comes out and it tries to start up but fails. Can anyone give me instructions on how to get this thing back up and running? I just got the tractor and Im not too good of mechanic, so please tell me where things like the injector lines and stuff are.
Thanks

Got it running, thanks for the help. Once I loosened the nut and bled some fuel I tried starting it about 3 or 4 times and then it ran.

I have a 1220 and I think they both have the same 3 cylinder diesel engine. At the bottom of the fuel tank a cloth covered rubber hose runs down to the fuel filter and fuel cutoff valve. Then the rubber line runs up to the top of the injector pump. It connects behind the three steel lines to the pump with a small hose clamp. Where the line connects to the pump there is a small bolt (10 mm I think) which you need to loosen to let the air out of the line. Open this nut about 3/4 turn and air bubbles should come out . When fuel flows and no bubbles close the bleed valve,( the 10 mm nut) and try to crank the engine. You should not have to loosen the injector lines. I have ran mine out of fuel several times and it will start up after doing this. You may want to check the fuel filter bowl for water and clean out. Hope this helps Danny Hearl
