Maybe try another one out of the 4 pack and see if it's the same way?
Maybe you just got lucky with the first one...

 Does not work for me. I tried it that way, could only get one of the four
 tabs to lock. The tolerances are way tight on this unit. It took all my
 might to get the feedhorn in the hole of the dish (putting the horn in
 first), and it will not bottom out like it is supposed to so the tabs can
 reach their holes. This is a major disappointment for me.

   That's what I thought at first, I'ma gonna break somethin...

 I stuck the feedhorn in first. Put the back bracket and mount on. Put the
 four allen-head screw in hand tight. Put some pressure on the front of the
 feedhorn and push on the back of the bracket at each of the four locking
 tab points. They click in place. Tighten the four allen screws. Put the
 front reflector on, mount the radio, etc. Fairly easy after the first one.

  Just got my four pack in. Opened the box, all nicely packed. Started my
 first assembly. Got the bracket put on the dish. No problems. Now I get to
 the feedhorn push in. Yah right. This thing will not just click in place
 like the video shows. There is no way this feed horn I have will push far
 enough for the tabs to go into the holes for themI would probably break
 something. Seriously, I put the Force 100 together faster, and you know how
 bad it is...I hope the other three are not like this or they will go back
 to the supplier.
