Need to service a bilge float. Can I unscrew the panel it's mounted to?

I have a float that gets stuck up, so want to remove it and investigate what's going on. But access to it is a real chore. Can I unbolt the two screws that hold the black plate that attaches to the hull, to get the float and pump out to a side? Or are those screws a real pain and meant to be a one time only install into the hull? See pic. The two screws are in the front of the pic.
Alternately does anyone know a trick to take off the Rule float easy? I know the bilge pumps lift out of the cartridge, but not sure if there is a trick to get the main body of the float off.
