How to correctly lock WBT''s?

Cable Asylum

Interconnects, speaker wire, power cords. Ask the Cable Guys.

Sorry for the pedestrian question, but I'm using a new IC and have never used WBT connectors. I'm finding the center pin goes into the amp and pre RCA and then I have to turn counter clockwise to get it tight. If I go clockwise the WBT body goes forward but can't be tightened. There are threads on the amp RCA and the WBT but nothing that 'holds'. I tried that way and get hum. It's only when I tighten counterclockwise that I get a snug connection and that moves the WBT cover back away from the RCA while the center pin remains inside fully. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Happy Labor Day
