Thanks, A.
Andrew:

Yes, it can be removed... See the photo I attached in the previous post for what you end up with once it's completely removed.

If you go to the trouble of removing it, you may as well replace the O-rings.

Also inspect the rubber membrane immediately under the top portion of the assembly.

There is a photo of a defective one earlier in this thread.

BE VERY SURE to heed the cautions against overtorquing the bolts.

Regards, Maurice.
