English term or phrase: balance wheel
Context: Sewing maching part
"Turn the balance wheel to ....."
I've found "balance wheel" = "rueda catalina" or "volante"
I understand it's a synonym of "pulley", which is "volante"
I can't see anything wich ressembles a "rueda catalina" in the picture I have at hand.
Thanks in advance!! ;)

volante // polea para pulley


Explanation:
He visto que balance wheel se refiere a la rueda que se encuentra en lo que sería el "codo" del brazo de la máquina de coser. Por eso me inclino por volante
En cambio, pulley lo he visto referido a una polea del interior de la máquina.
