These steps describe how to disassemble a Toto E-Max Fill Valve. Please note that one helpful commenter suggested that they did not need to remove the fill valve from the toilet before flushing it; you can therefore regard the early instructions on removing the fill valve from the toilet as possibly optional.

-
-
Shut off the stop valve underneath the toilet by turning it clockwise until it becomes hand tight.
-
-
-
Disconnect the fill valve's rubber refill tube from the top of the overflow tube.
-
-
-
Push down the flush lever.
-
Hold the lever down until water stops draining from the tank.
-
-
-
Use a sponge to soak up and remove any remaining water from the toilet tank.
-
Periodically squeeze the excess water from the sponge.
-
-
-
Place a bucket under the supply tube to catch any dripping water.
-
Turn the coupling nut on the supply tube clockwise until it releases from the threaded shank on the bottom of the tank.
-
-
-
Using an adjustable wrench, turn the locknut on the threaded shank counter-clockwise until it becomes loose.

This is our friend the Toto E-Max Fill valve. Unfortunately, she is leaking. Specifically, the shutoff is incomplete, so water continues to flow even after the float is fully lifted.

The next step is to remove the green top cap. It's held on by tabs, light flexing should allow you to remove it.
-
-
-
Here is the valve lever[*]. We need to remove it. It's held in by two pegs. Each one is attached to a flexible tang. use a thin blade or screwdriver to push each tang in, while gently lifting the lever.

[*} I have no idea if this is the right name.
-
-
-
Here we see one peg released. Note that I'm applying very gentle lifting pressure, not prying it upward.
-
-
-
Valve lever released! You are a champion. BTW, I made up the name "valve lever". I hope you're not laughing at me.
-
-
-
This is the other end of the valve lever. You should be able to easily release it from the green collar.
-
-
-
Next, gently pop off the green collar that links the valve lever to the threaded float lift shaft.
-
-
-
Gently snap the white float pole out of the jaws of the top cap. When you do this, the float assembly will drop.
-
-
-
Rotate the valve cover an eighth of a turn counter-clockwise to release it.
-
-
-
Yay! We got to the valve seal. Clean it off or replace it, and reverse steps to reassemble.

Thank you! I did not expect to find a guide for a Toto toilet repair on a (mainly) electronics site, but here it is!
It worked perfectly when my toilet started running continuously on a Saturday evening.
I was able to take everything apart without even removing it from the tank, so it was a 15min fix!
Thank you!
