There is a bleed valve (possibly complete with nozzle for a length of tube) on the oil pump.
The thing to avoid, is to tamper with two other controls on the pump. One is where a gauge can be attached to measure pump pressure. The important one to leave alone is the pressure regulator. If you adjust that, the whole burning process is affected.... requiring re-setting to the right level.
