I believe I have debris stuck inside one of my Jandy Never Lube diverter valves. My question is: Can I just pop off the handle, unscrew the 8 screws and take the lid off to dismantle it? Is there anything I need to prepare myself to go wrong? Like do I ALWAYS have to replace the o-ring, or whatever seals the valve? Any input would be appreciated. It just seems too simple to be true, you know what I mean?
 
As long as the pad is above water level it shouldn't be a problem. As far as needing parts, If it wasn't leaking you shouldn't have an issue putting it back together. Don't over tighten and criss cross all around evenly.

Depends how old it is if you will need to replace the O ring. Having Pool Lube to put on the O ring can also prevent leaks.
