Hi B,
Yes, you can just grab it with your fingers and it will pull off.

The top pulls off. Be gentle putting it back on, it's easy to bend the "feet" if you miss the inner ring.

If tilt - pull off the top button. for the tilt ring - remove the screws - be sure to note the location of all screws and parts.

Just be gentle and take you time if tilt.
