The insert provides rigidity to the spool bracket holder by attaching it to the printer's metal frame. You'll also need one 3x10mm screw, the same type used to attach the spool bracket holder to the rear cover.
For best results, I also recommend printing a solid spool holder (The file is also attached).

To install the insert, remove the back cover. Next, trim the elements (1) on the back of the coil bracket holder mounting holes down to the cover's surface and ream out these four holes to 3 mm. Also trim off the two protruding elements (2) above the mounting holes. 

I used wire cutters and a utility knife for this.

Unscrew the screw (3)

Install the insert and slide it all the way to the right. Tighten the screw (3), and then tighten an additional 3x10 mm screw (4) from below.

Install the back cover back and screw on the bracket mount.
