Strange bracket on Yamaha C6

When the piano is shipped from the factory the bolt is turned up snug
against the pinblock to keep the action from flopping around in transit.
The tech doing the dealer prep is supposed to turn it down enough so
that it will clear the stretcher when the action is being removed.
Leaving it this high will still help keep the action in place if/when it
is moved.

First visit to a C6 today (at last!  A very nice piano, after all those
spinets!).  Checking the action, there's a bracket attached to the
keyslip side of the hammer rail, right above the action bracket between
sections two and three (about C5?).  It has an L-shaped profile, and a
small bronze bolt projects vertically thru its upper horizontal surface.
 
Is this just a shipping bolt that is raised up against the pinblock?  I
lowered it just to prevent weird buzzes.
