Default Question Red Wellgo Look-compatible cleats (model RC-5, 9-degreesof lateral float adjustment)

What is the little alan head bolt for in the middle of the cleat, which is surrounded by what looks like a rubber grommet, and how are you supposed to adjust it?

The instructions don't mention anything about this little bolt, but the grommet-looking thing around it has a "+" and a "-" embossed in it, indicating that it is supposed to be adjusted(?)

I thought it might be to adjust the force necessary for pedal release, but of course the pedal itself already has an adjustment for that, so it didn't seem logical to have two identical modes of adjusting pedal release force.

Thanks, everyone.


The little rubber thingy in the center is expertly designed
to keep you from falling on your ass when you stop to buy
refreshments in a store with linoleum floors. The Look
version is square, yours is round. The added value feature
of model RC-05 is a height adjustment screw for the rubber
thingy.
