The bit should be set about 1/16" below the chisel.

I have a story on setting up mortising machines at the link below. It has photos and stuff to help make the gap thing clearer. Once you do this a couple times it happens very quickly. I get lots of email about setting these machines up so have faith, you are not alone!
