anyone with a remote bottle opener, question
Well, I have the NX remote bottle opener. It works fine, BUT sometimes I have the problem of the valve on the bottle itself getting hard to turn and the clutch in the opener will spin and I can't get the bottle to open or close. I would have to go and turn the bottle open/close by hand and free it, then put that remote bottle opener back on. I tried wd40 on the valve, I hope it works better. Anyone else ever have this problem, I'm just wondering if I just have a sticky valve on my bottle or if this is more common problem. Thanks

Yes....
You need to tighten up the clutch.
I dont have mine anymore cause 1 of my bottles is in the truck for race days...so i have time to open it up...and my other one is under the seat just incase i need to open a can on someone on the street. And its easy to open...
But yes...Just tighten it up...Should be fine.
Sent me a message if you need anymore help.

thanks guys, thats something along the lines of what I was thinking. Since I don't have the directions, can someone give me a brief rundown on the proper way to tighten the clutch, such as where is the adjustment, and how much of a turn I should tighten it, I don't want to break anything. Or better yet, anyone have a scanned copy of the directions??? Thanks again

Clarify...
I have just installed an NOS remote bottle opener. I have only bench tested it. I don't understand the problem you are having but it seems to be common. Can you explain again what happens with your bottle opener? Does it happen only to that brand or does the NOS bottle opener do it as well.

Its very simple to tighten. The clutch\gear has a bolt thru it. Hold the nut with a wrench and tighten the screw....it may take a few adjustments to get it tight enough.
