turning gear (or jacking gear)
Explanation:
The "torna flecha" is a device which slowly turns the turbine when the motor or drive is shut-down to ensure uniform cool-down (so avoiding an abrupt stoppage for example). I believe this kind of device is also used during start-up and for maintenance purposes.
