Hi Rob,
If you plan to increase the maximum current from 1 Amp to 10 Amps then I would suggest that you change the value of the shunt resistor due to power handling ratings. 10 amps flowing through a 0R47 shunt resistor will need a hi power resistor (P=I^2 x R = 47 Watts).
Your circuit shows the original 0R1 shunt resistor power rating as only 3 watts which has a theoretical limitation of just under 5.5 amps.
