Does anyone know how to remove the U-shaped round chrome stop from a Bosch jigsaw in order to insert the DeWalt flush cut blade DW3311?

The U-shaped stop is shown in these photos.  It comes down from the body and is just above the shoe.

Thanks for any replies (other than those who say “should have bought a DeWalt jigsaw”.
