I'm assembling a new Infusion mast and found that the slot at the end of the spreaders is not wide enough to allow the diamond wire to fit in the groove.

Has anyone else had this problem? Either the diamond wires are the wrong gauge or the slot is the wrong size.

Help! This is frustrating!

There was a batch of spreaders that came out with the slot just a little bit too small.

Simply file the slot until the wire fits and you are good to go.

Thanks. Did this happen recently? The boat is brand new.

Take it up with your dealer, that's what you paid your money for! most dealers are more than happy to help out their customers.

Yep, I noticed it at the end of last year on a couple of sets and that was the first time.

its not a real problem, just takes 5min to get a perfect fit.
