Using *systemctl* one can easily start and stop timer units belonging to a service. As root:
systemctl start backup-bitlbee.timer
systemctl stop backup-bitlbee.timer
-
To make the system boot with this timer started, enable it. Again, as root:
systemctl enable backup-bitlbee.timer
systemctl disable backup-bitlbee.timer
-
When the timer's conditions are met, the service *backup-bitlbee.service* is started automatically. Much like cron.
Unlike cron, you can also start and stop the service separately:
systemctl start backup-bitlbee.service
systemctl stop backup-bitlbee.service

**Note:** *Due to systemd's architecture you can copy/paste and modify the given timer from **/usr/lib/systemd/system/** and put it to **/etc/systemd/system**. The latter will always have precedence over the former. Same counts for services!*

When the timer's conditions are met, the service *backup-firefox.service* is started (as your user) automatically.
This service can of course also just be started and stopped separately from the timer:
systemctl --user start backup-firefox.service
systemctl --user stop backup-firefox.service

**Note:** *To minimize the size of your backups, you might want to consider using tools like [profile-cleaner](https://github.com/graysky2/profile-cleaner) to shrink the size of your program profiles.*
