MK3S+ Assembly - Y-rod-holder. M3nS nuts not fitting

Hi Everyone - I just bought the MK3S+ assembly kit and am on Step 2A-25. I am trying to get the M3nS nuts into the Y-rod holders. The nuts fit on the top but the side will not fit. I have tried using some force and took a small knife to make sure nothing is stuck in there but can not get them to fit. Any advice would be welcomed!

Do you have a small file set?  I found that invaluable for cleaning out some of the parts when doing the assembly.  In a pinch, one of the Allen keys can be used to clean out those slots.
