Tug slightly on 2 tabs on 1 side and remove by prying off gently. Too much force will break the tabs.

SR BUT I HAVE 4 TABS AT FOUR SIZE, NOT 2 TABS AT 1 SIDE LIKE IN THE PICTURE
AND I SAW THE VIDEO, AT 3:55 THEY JUST TAKE THE FAN SHROUD OUT WITHOUT TOUCHING THE TABS?? AND SO I MUST PRY 2/4 TABS FIRST THEN PRY 2/4 TABS LEFT???

2 tabs must be loose to lift off from one side. I know there are 4 tabs. If you pull too hard ALL TABS will break off. Putting back is easier because you press it back on.
