What tools do I need to install these pedals?

Can I use these pedals for mountain biking?

How do I change the release tension?

Do I need to grease the threads before installation?
It is recommended to apply a small amount of bike-specific grease to the pedal threads to prevent seizing and make future removal easier.
Troubleshooting
Pedal feels difficult to clip into.
Adjust the tension screw on the rear of the pedal to a lower setting and ensure the cleat is not obstructed by mud or debris.
Clicking or popping sounds while pedaling.
Check that the pedal is tightened fully into the crank arm and verify that the cleat bolts are torqued properly to the shoe sole.
Pedal body is hard to spin.
Ensure no thread sealant or debris is contacting the crank arm; if the issue persists, the bearings may require professional inspection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, use an 8mm hex wrench to thread the pedals into the crank arms, noting that the left pedal is reverse-threaded and should be turned counter-clockwise to tighten. The pedals are compatible with Look Cycle KÉO cleats, which are included. Ensure the cleats are mounted securely to your road shoes at the correct position for your anatomy. To maintain the pedals, clean them periodically with a mild detergent and water, and wipe away excess grit from the engagement springs. Do not use high-pressure sprayers directly on the bearing seals.
