Looks like it is supposed to work that way. On my Colombian quick release vise the nut floats. When you turn the handle CW it engages the the nut with the lead. when turned CCW it disengages with the screw. On yours the nut appears to be in a fixed position. The flat on the screw is where it disengages from the screw. 3/4 turn CW and you’re tight.
