"keep the forceps in one hand and gently operate the jaws by working the finger spool."

the sentence was taken from a biopsy forceps manual.

I believe this is the piece they are referring to:

I've come across "deslizador" in Br Portuguese. I wonder if I can use it as well in european Portuguese?

Thanks!

Correção para a sua pergunta: "finger spool" »» "carretel para apoio de dedos"

Para responder concretamente à parte da pergunta sobre a tradução para "deslizador", este não me parece um termo muito vulgar em PT-PT, e um carretel é precisamente uma peça que pode girar/deslizar sobre um eixo.
Mas também não lhe posso confirmar em absoluto que "carretel" seja o termo usado na terminologia destas peças em PT-PT: podem ter adotado outro termo (por ex, "êmbolo para apoio de dedos", por associação ao movimento deslizante de um êmbolo)

Julgo que uma boa opção é "carretel de dedo", pois ele é um carretel manobrado pelo dedo (no seu movimento de vaivém), e serve também para a função de "apoio de dedo(s)".
