Some days it can just be a deliberate swine to get on these.
I seem to remember on some belts that when you line up the cams EXACTLY the belt won't quite fit properly, and because of the nature of the crank being exactly half the teeth of the cams, it's very easy to get half a tooth out.
I'd suggest attempting to time it with the crank ever so slightly retarded - IE the timing line a fraction closer to the most clockwise dot - that should allow you a tiny amount of slack on the front side of the belt and allow you to get a more accurate fit. Just keep trying, eventually it'll go on - assuming that your cams are clocked correctly in the right sprocket holes.
