No gib locking screw? Triac

I recently bought a Triac.
Reading through the documentation I can find, it seems like it should have an adjustment screw and a locking screw at the opposite end for each gib. Mine has just the adjustment screw(on X&Y, haven't checked Z yet)
There's no holes for locking screws in the castings.

Is there a locking mechanism located elsewhere on some triacs?
My problem is,not being able to lock the gib, it will work fine in one direction, but slide and bind the axis in the opposite direction.(unless I have it really loose)


Thanks
