Default Fletching Hitting cable on drop away rest. HELP!!!

I just got a NAP Quicktune 2000 drop away rest and my fletchings are hitting the cable of the drop away rest. Has anyone ever had this problem? I even changed my nocks so the cock feather is facing outward to the left and they still slightly hit the cable. Is this a common problem? How can I fix this?

I think most people replace the steel cable with a piece of string loop rope. The cable seems top be too stiff and doesn't fall away out of the way of the fletchings on some bows.

Just put one twist in it (clockwise looking from back to front) and it will slide to the right under your cable guard at the shot. I had one and did this and the cable moves far away from your fletchings.

I actually prefer the cable that NAP has. I have a TKO on my bow now and the string will not stay twisted away from the arrow like the steel cable did. It is constantly in the way.[&:]

Give this a try. I found this on NAP's website for the Quicktune 2000.
