Just remove the line fittings and maybe one bracket and lift it out. Don't forget to remove the old orifice from the rear fitting.

Not an orifice ring, just a plain orifice tube or as it is sometimes called, an expansion tube.. It acts as a filter to keep trash and other garbage out of the system. Here is a picture of it.
