removing octave key on Yamaha 23 alto

One video posted on this site re: recorking a neck suggested removing the octave key to avoid damaging it. Thought I might do that, but the simple screw removed in the video doesn’t seem to exist on my yas 23. I’m pretty sure I can recork without removing the octave key, but now I’m curious about how I would go about removing it? Advice much appreciated.

Frankly, anyone so clumsy that they need to remove the octave key to avoid damaging it when replacing a neck cork has no business working with sharp knives and sandpaper in the first place.
