4-2 Adjusting the Swing Phase Control

To adjust the swing phase control, select
appropriate
resistances using the two adjusting valves
of the hydraulic cylinder.
4-2-1 Adjusting the flexion resistance
of hydraulic cylinder
At first, adjust the flexion resistance.
As shown in Fig. 11, the flexion adjusting
valve (F) is located on the right when
viewed from the user. As shown in Fig. 12,
the scale is graduated from "1" to "8".
"1" corresponds to the highest hydraulic
resistance, and "8" corresponds to the
lowest.
(Reference) Factory default: "8"
To adjust the valve, use a 2 mm hexagonal
wrench. Insert the wrench from the lowest
hole in the front link side face.
This hydraulic cylinder is intended for
swing phase control. Do not use it for any
other purpose. If the prosthesis is used
under overload, for example, by applying
CAUTION
the body weight at a high flexion
resistance, it may be damaged.
4-2-2 Adjusting the extension
resistance of hydraulic cylinder
If terminal impact occurs at the end of the
swing phase,
resistance. As shown in Fig. 13, the
extension adjusting valve (E) is located on
the left when viewed from the user. As
shown in Fig. 14, the scale is graduated
from "1" to "8". "1" corresponds to the
highest hydraulic
corresponds to the lowest.
(Reference) Factory default: "8"
To adjust the valve, use a 2 mm hexagonal
wrench. Insert the wrench from the center
hole in the front link side face.
If the extension resistance is set too
high, the knee does not extend fully,
thereby causing falling.
