English term

Turning the handles [in context]

English to Italian Other Ships, Sailing, Maritime
In ambito velistico i grinder, i trimmer, "manovrano le impugnature", oppure esiste una terminologia specifica?
"As well as turning the handles to put power into the system, the trimmer's job is to control the hydrofoils with push-buttons and he needs a clear head to do it right."
Grazie!
