this one now has a delatch force 600 gm one way and 800gm the other. As an
easier retrofit fudge perhaps a disc of rubber, sandwiched at either end by
the mounting screw, would bind the slider well enough to the chassis and
still allow movement

Does this application have the 230V / 115V legends coloured over with
black paint?

The fix could just be some hot melt glue squirted into and around the
screw driver slot with a small loop of wire or string embedded into it
so the glue wad can be pulled out at a future time if needed.
