*** When you see the symbol ๆ , it is used to repeat the word right before it. เบาๆ is read the same as เบาเบา. เบา by itself is an adjective that means light, as in lightweight, a soft force. Repeating the word itself again turns an adjective into an adverb, just like how in English, you would put -ly at the end of an adjective to turn it into an adverb. In this case, you want them to do it "softly" so you don't break your back.
