How do I set the height for the 90-507 ogee bit with a back cutter? The bit thinned the tongue when adjusted.
Infinity Tools 1/2" Shank Raised Panel Router Bits w/ Backcutter
Bought the 90-507 (ogee with back cutter). Probably a dumb questions, but how do I determine the proper bit height? The video explains the process for the bit without back cutter, but not the one with. I'm using 3/4" stock. I anticipate two passes with each bearing. I got the first pass to leave 1/4" tongue, but as soon as I moved the fence to the bearing, the tongue thinned at that's before going to the smaller bearing. Thoughts?

Setting bit height with the Back-cut raised panel is best done with a test cut or two just to make sure the height matches your rails and stile. If the tongue is coming out a little thinner after moving the fence, make sure you are using good hold downs, and your bit height adjustment is locked in place, and collet is nice and tight.
