somebody know the working principle of this amplifier and knows me explain?
The trimmer should be set as?
V-fet: what will be happening here?

It is a semiconductor variant of the "circlotron". You can redraw the supplies, output stages, ground and load in a different order to understand what's going on.
VR2 & 3 set the Iq and VR1 sets the DC offset.

Obviously, you should adjust Vr1 to get 0V at the speaker terminals.
For Vr2 and Vr3, it is less clear: they both have a similar effect, and I don't quite see the purpose of biasing the current source with a FET. Anyway, you should adjust them to get the recommended quiescent current.
Somebody else may be more inspired than I am.

thanks for the information.I have four 2sj18 (and they were not cheap) and I would try to build this amp possible without burning them😀
Start with VR2 at its highest resistance, and VR3 at its lowest. This will give the minimal current possible.
