Another way to think of it: The threading on the pedals is designed to tighten in the direction that you pedal, to prevent the pedals from unscrewing as you ride. How easy it is to remove your pedals depends on how they were installed. Was there grease added? Were they secured very tight? Insert the pedal spindle into the crank arm and align with the threading.
Insert the Allen key into the end of the pedal spindle or place the pedal wrench onto the spindle and rotate toward the front wheel on both the left and right pedals. See more info on those systems below.
All clipless systems function similarly: You mount the cleats to the bottom of your shoes, and the cleats engage with the pedals. To install the cleat onto your shoe, determine exactly where to place it. All clipless systems give a generous range of placement from front to back, and a smaller range side to side, near the toe of the shoe. A good general rule of thumb is to have the horizontal middle of the cleat line up with the ball of your foot.
Adjusting cleat placement from there can depend on personal preference, comfort, and biomechanics. Ideally, you should get a professional bike fit done since improper cleat placement can lead to discomfort or chronic issues. A pedal-cleat setup with more float also lends a little more room for error with cleat placement. Your cleat placement with a no-float setup should be as precise as possible.
When installing, be sure to grease the bolts that secure the cleat to the shoe to prevent them from rusting and to allow you to move them if necessary. Once you find the right cleat placement, you can trace the outside of the cleat onto the sole of the shoe with a permanent marker so you can always replace the cleat in the exact same spot each time. And a little baggie of unidentifiable screws and bolts. And an instruction manual so long and complicated, I almost gagged. What do you need to know to install SPD cleats in mountain bike shoes?
