To adjust the swing phase setting, both
the initial tension of the spring as well as
the axis friction in the top part of the knee
joint can be adjusted. Please note that the
effect of the extension assist spring and
the setting of the axis friction are con­
nected to each other. To adjust the swing
phase setting you should start by adjusting
the initial spring tension. Afterwards you
can influence the damping during swing
phase by adjusting the axis friction.
