Default Nitrous bottle valve

Does anyone know how to remove the main valve on the nitrous bottle? I dont see any nut and treads fitting on it. It seem like the valve assembly is tightly fit to the bottle collar.

I have to rotate the valve so my nitrous outlet is parrallel to the floor. My remote bottle opener is so tight to the floor is the outlet is pointing down. I have the HSW kit. They told me if i have to rotate the bottle, the siphon tube have to be adjusted....is this true?
