on the pump thats fitted to my TD citroen ZX (bosch as well)
when looking at the engine from the front there is a bolt on the right with a lock nut and a anti tamper locking ring to adjust the fueling you first tear off the locking tab with some pliers then loosen locking nut and adjust the bolt in for more fuel and out for less.

my pump does look quite a bit different to yours but i would guess its the same process the anti tamper locking tab will be the give away to which is the fuel adjustment screw.

**warning**
without a turbo on it you will not gain much in the way of performance and at the most i would suggest turning it up 1/4 of a turn anymore than that will just result in lots of smoke and less mpg
