No tools needed. Pull up on the engine cover, unlatch the latches that hold down each air box. I think there are 3 on each lid. Like Tee said, vac up the debris in the bottom of the air boxes. Reverse process..

Thanks Guys,
Like most things it's easy if you know how; thanks for the tip about using a vacuum in the filter box.

You do need to slip loose the two input hoses, if I remember correctly. I think they are (or should be) secured with hose ring clamps. It is amazing what collects in those boxes!
