Manfrotto 293 tele supp. easily twisted sideways

Hi,

I acquired the mentioned product for my 200 f2/.8 and the 2x tc. It works quite well length-wise but it is screwed on to the ball head's fast plate via a 1/4" hole, then the little peg also on the fast plate goes into a 3/8" hole (I'm guessing it is). Even if the peg went into a 1/4" hole it seems possible that the telesupport could be twisted a bit sideways, both ways. The tele support is supposed to support both screw dimensions, I mean.

As you can tell, it doesn't matter how hard the plate is screwed into one of the tele support's 1/4" holes; the support's shape provides excellent twisting leverage.

Is there any way around this? I'm not even sure supergluing a fast plate onto the telesupport would work really well :P
