REED vises

Guys
I'm a newbie when it comes to the vintage vises, so I figured I would ask the experts. Is the adjusting screw that holds the main vise screw supposed to be in two pieces? I'm in the process of restoring this vise and want to get it back to like new. TIA

The split nut around the spindle? Yes.
