You can manually override them if you grab the lever and they are damped in their movement as I think you have to override the motor clutch or similar.
Both in "manual" using the "beep" switches is pretty benign - adjust "beep" in which you are changing N1 by fuel flow and adjust collective accordingly to maintain acceptable Nr.
If the "beep" trim is not working and both in manual is possibly where you need an cojo with S-61 time?
Best done in a sim for a start. If you get it wrong it can be expensive.
Yes they are set up like that.
They needed a Sea King pilot with extensive experience of double manual drills......
