Linde (& Baker) H70D:
Mechanical stop at max height

We recently had a Linde H70D on loan and one of my operators inadvertently elevated the forks too high and broke off what appeared to be a small steel block approx. 3cm x 3cm x 1cm which was welded onto part of the mast. This appeared to be the mechanism intended to be the device to stop the forks being elevated too high.
Can anyone tell me if this is a "standard" Linde feature?

Seems to be a very small item to provide a solid stop in the event that the forks are elevated too high and comments overheard suggest that these have broken off on many other occasions with other users - which suggests to me that they are either not a standard Linde feature or clearly an add on that is not fit for purpose.
Any comments or advice appreciated from anyone with more extensive knowledge or experience of the Linde H70D.
Thanks,
Northscot

I would say that it is a customer added item.
The typical standard equipment stop on a Linde is bolted on the vertical part of the carriage which will not allow the carriage to come out of the inner rail.

The fork carriage should never hit this stop.
Linde have safety stops on all machines, I suggest your lift chains are adjusted incorrectly causing the carriage to go to high.
Refer to the service manual for chain adjustment
