Hi James,
They seem to have changed the mount since I bought my GSO dob whcih doesn't have the screws in your photos, so I can't help you with this one. I did find it helpful to ring the shop (I bought mine from Bintel) with questions and they were very good.
I also found the mount a bit frustrating at first, but with some of the mods suggested in the IIS articles section, I'm quite happy with it. And even thought its chipboard, it has lasted fine so far. I say this to reassure you that it will all work out and you will enjoy your scope.
