Any Dewalt dw744 table saw owners?

I'm trying to change the blade and for the life of I can't see how to remove what probably is a dust chute that covers the lower part of the blade and directs sawdust to the vacuum port. The blade won't come off the arbor with that chute in the way. Anyone done this?

Thanks folks,

It's never been an issue in mine. Make sure you raise the blade all the way and it comes right off

Thanks ID. My BIL came out and got it off by using a little force to slightly bend the plastic. I thought that shouldn't be necessary but it looks like that's the way to do it. Nothing is easy for Jeff anymore!
