You click on the turret. By the information panel about it there will be some buttons to press: Manual target, turn off and forbid use/repair.

Pretty much the same thing. You click on the colonist, draft them, then press the F key or the manual fire button then select what you want to fire at.

Right click is move while they're drafted. Left click after pressing F/fire is to shoot at the target you designated.

Bear in mind that A) your colonist needs a weapon, B) he can only shoot at things within his weapon's range, and C) unless he's using a Frag Grenade or Molotovs, he can't target the ground, or plants, or objects just resting on the ground.

After you recruit your colonist and press F, there should be a small icon of his weapon following your cursor around, or a "no" symbol if your colonist does not have a clear line of fire.  Circles will appear whenever you pass over anything you can actually target.
