I can't find a decent picture of the vice in situ on the vertical slide, but it's worth looking at this, to appreciate the tee-slot and tee-nut arrangement.

In view of the perceived problem and the proposed fix, it's perhaps worth noting that the vice appears to be supplied complete with its mounting hardware.

Come on Kiwi, this is the ME forum. Uninformed opinion, half baked guesswork; maybe even something a little subversive will suffice.
