SmartSolar MPPT 75/15 fuse replaceable? reversed polarity and doesnt charge

Is the 20 amp fuse on the Smart Solar Mppt 75/15 replaceable?

I cannot seem to be able to remove it, even though it looks accessible.

I reversed polarity to the battery and now the unit is not accepting charge from my solar panel - doh! Assume the fuse is fried. Unit is powering up and i can see it in the Connect app, but no charge is going to the battery.

I’m ready to buy a new unit but want to be able salvage the old unit if possible

This fuse?

It pulls out. Use a pair of long nose pliers, give it a little wriggle and pull out.

It's tough to pull out but it comes.
