How do I turn on/off the leaf blower from the physical controller? The instruction manual indicates that this can be done by pressing either the “LT” or “RT” buttons on the controller. I have tried pressing either of these buttons (and also pressing the Safety Button “RB” at the same time) to no avail ☹ .

Can someone point me to a video that shows how to do this? I was not able to find much info on this in the official docs, videos and general searches.

you have to hold LT and RT together for a few seconds to engage it. I think you can let one go after a bit. Then to move you have to hold the RB safety button. Here’s some more information on the controller.
