I think so - see attached picture. The contact area between the screw and the plate appears to be so small that the slot will get damaged. A washer should increase the contact area.
My mount can be pushed around like a Dob so that I can check the seeing without having to plug in the electricals. The scope lives outside on the patio while the PC and power supply is on a trolley in the shed.
The friction clutch can be adjusted by the small screws near the centre.
