Assembly Process: Put a small amount of glue into the middle hole meant for the magnet, then place the magnet into the hole. Rest the bottle opener on its back to dry. Use a pair of pliers to carefully squeeze the M4 Washer into place.

Functional Use: This device is a bottle opener that lifts pry-off caps and grips twist-off caps when pressed down and turned.

Relevant Occupations: Feeding and Eating, Meal Preparation

Client Factors: May be relevant when grip or pinch strength is reduced.

Performance Skills: The tool lifts or turns the cap, so the client pries or twists with the tool rather than pinching a small cap, while the other hand holds the bottle. The tool can also be used with one handed by squeezing when lifting caps.

Safety Considerations: The washer and magnet are small and can loosen, so check that they stay in place.

Limitations: The twist-off section wears over time. It is not a cleared medical device, so its use must be a clinical decision made by the treating occupational therapist.

Issues: The twist-off section may wear out over time.

Recommendations: A vise or clamp may help to hold the bottle opener while installing the washer.

Ease of use: Easy

Test results or review: The part worked as intended.
