Yes you need to pull out the valve. Its just a matter of pulling the snap-ring out of then end of the master cylinder with the plunger, removing the piston, removing the valve and re-assembling in reverse order. To remove the master cylinder from the coupler, remove the brake hose, take out the four bolts (number 17 on page 9 of the Dico 10 doc below), slide the master cylinder out of the back of the coupler.
Tim - What coupler do you have Dico 10 or 20? They are similar, but the 20 has an extra roll pin and guide pin.
Here is a parts breakdown for each:

yes you can , but you need to remove the residual valve in the master cylinder or poke a hole in it to let off the presure off the disc brakes , so I am told . Tim
