Is there any reason I can’t move the Tool height setter? At this time I do not plan on using the first 15 inches or so of my 4 x 10 machine. I would like the Tool height setter to be closer to my spoilboard if that will not cause any issues…. Thanks for any thoughts on this!

It can be anywhere on your machine that can be reached by the spindle. If you move it make sure you recalibrate it
