Exclamation Clip for negative battery terminal wont tighten

The clip for the negative battery terminal will not tighten around new battery terminal. Thus giving me the stress to deal with this before work tomorow. I noticed a fuse connected to the negative terminal clip. What do I need to do to fix this problem?
I figured get a new clip and connect it but i dont want to disrupt anything with the fuse to cause another problem.
Sorry about the noob question...........

Loosen it up a little...... then clean out underneath the treminal..... put it back on and tap it down flush against battery and hold it there with a screwdriver as you tighten it up.
