English term or phrase: Lazy hand
This term is from a manual for an exercise machine. It is an indicator that moves along a torque gauge's needle and indicates the maximum torque produced by an exercising patient.

The text is, 'Gauge readings of the XXX system display the actual torque output in foot pounds. They're equipped with LAZY HANDS to give you the opportunity to record the maximum torque achieved.'

Portuguese translation:indicador
Explanation:
Na ausência de uma figura, parece ser um indicador que é deslocado, manualmente ou arrastado junto com a outra. para ficar posisionado na leitura dada pelo ponteiro regular. Sendo assim, chamaria de "marcador de máxima", podendo incluir ma expilcação.
