Safe to remove forestock?

[nutting]

I am lucky enough to own a 1914 SMLE in superb condition, with a heavy barrel fitted by Fultons. The buttstock is slightly loose but I note that you are advised to remove the forestock before tightening the stock bolt. What is the danger of disturbing the ‘Regulated by Fultons’ bedding by removing the forestock? Any advice would be appreciated.
