Installation of the spool holder

Hello, everyone.  I just got my mk3s and was going to put the supplied filament holder on.  It seems to be a tad bit too small to easily be installed.  I am afraid to brute force it and break it.  Anyone got any tip or tricks to get the spool holder on without breaking it?  I can print a replacement once I can get the original on.

Well I used a file on the channel.  I consider it a design defect - there is a discontinuity in the channel.

And if you use too much force - you will break it. Follow the recommended installation procedure.

It is not the original filament holder, but it fits perfectly on the included bracket. I just uploaded it a few minutes ago. Maybe this can help you.
