IF you are talking about the top of the bit at the widest part of the cut,
you need to raise the bit so that it does not cut as deep. Yes the round
over will not be complete but minor sanding corrects that. That sanding is
much easier than having to take out a ridge caused by cutting too deep.

If you are talking about the round over near the bottom at the bearing, get
a new and or better bit.
