Italian term

(auto)registrabile (v. context)

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Automotive / Cars & Trucks Braking systems, axles
I'm translating a manual for installing and maintaining axles. There are several references to "registrare" and "registrabile" and "autoregistrabile". The client suggests that it means "adjust(able)" but I'm not completely convinced.

Sample contexts:
Agendo sulla vite a testa esagonale, ___registrare___ la leva freno nella direzione della frenatura...

LEVA REGISTRABILE (some say this is a slack adjuster... but then what is a LEVA AUTOREGISTRABILE?
Proposed translations (English)
3 +3 (self-)adjustable
5 self-adjustable

p.s. maybe the *auto* is not related to "self" but to "automatic"
