Tons of float, you are not restricted, you knees and leg follow their natural position.
They need to be maintained with a spritz of your favorite lube about every other ride I discovered to keep them engaging and disengaging smoothly. I use a silicon spray.
Get the little grease gun to inject grease into the bearings occasionally and you are on your way to total pedal happiness

Also, the cleats require lubrication. I use the speedplay lubricant specifically for their cleats. Maybe every other ride.
