I assume you have gotten it already, but I have been off for awhile, and see noone has replied.
Obviously start by relieving the fuel pressure and be sure to wear safety glasses. I usually lay a clean shop rag over my nose and mouth as I do not have a face shield. Insert the tool into the hose on one side of the filter. Then push the hose onto the tool a bit and remove them from the filter as a unit. It is not easy, but once you get the feel of it, you will have no problem doing the other side.
Good Luck
