Pretty easy, although there are a couple of types fitted.

Undo the five screws around the perimeter of the housing top face.

Lift up the top of the housing (with hoses still attached).

Lift out the old filter, along with old O-ring and gasket.

Clean out the housing.

Insert new filter with new O-ring

Put new gasket on top of housing and tighten the five screws. Be GENTLE they are only 5Nm torque, so only need lightly nipping tight.
