Often the little grub screw is an allen screw so you need the correct sized allen key for it. You should then be able to dismantle most of the tap in situe.

yes, that a torx, you can get right angled keys similar to allen ones that may do the job. Never seen two screws but it seems they don't want to make the task easy.
