line it up with the studs then give it a real good whack. i had the same drama's with myne. the sandwich plate holds it out. let the front of the sump sit down should help also. if that doesnt work get a fbh

a fbh could be the answer and nearly was ,but something less violent could be suggested what about if i move the studs to the side instead of the back maybe????
