Step Four: Pedal and Adjust.
Have the cyclist pedal for 5 minutes and make no
adjustments during this first five minute period. This loosens
the cyclist's legs and allows the cyclist to acclimate to the
pedaling motion with the CleatMaster.
After the initial 5 minutes of pedaling, observe the angular
alignment while the cyclist is pedaling. The cyclist will settle
into their neutral foot position. This may or may not be the
pedal neutral position. In the left figure, the alignment rod
is over 6 degrees forward. In the right figure, the rod is over
6 degrees rearward. Both of these positions have been
exaggerated for purposes of clarity.
Make appropriate adjustments.
Grasp the cyclist's shoe
firmly in one hand and with the other hand grab the tool
handle and pull back/ push forward to adjust the point of
the brass alignment rod to center. In the case of forward

shown in the next series of pictures.
