Default Electric Cutout Problem

I just received my QTP electric cutout but the electric unit doesn't seen to fit the bolts on the actual cutout. Has anyone else had this problem ? Even if I would be able to get it on, there isn't enough room for the twist nuts to get onto the bolts. Can someone please help.

thanks

Hmm.. do you have a custom cut out?

QTP fit a Flowtech cutout perfectly.

Yeah they shipped me the cutout with it. However the bolt on the cutout is too big for the QTP electric plate to fit onto it.
