INTENDED USE

The D25961-XE heavy-duty demolition hammers are designed for professional 

demolition, chipping and chasing applications.

 DO NOT 

use under wet conditions 

or in presence of flammable liquids or gases.
These heavy-duty demolition hammers are professional power tools.

 DO NOT

 

let children come into contact with the tool. Supervision is required when 

inexperienced operators use this tool.

ACTIVE VIBRATION CONTROL 

The active vibration control neutralizes rebound vibration from the hammer 

mechanism. Lowering hand and arm vibration, it allows more comfortable use for 

longer periods of time and extends the life of the unit.

WARNING: ALWAYS wear approved protective safety equipment complying 

with the following standards:

•  Eye protection: AS/NZS1337 Eye Protectors for Industrial Applications;
•  Hearing protection: AS/NZS1270 Acoustics – Hearing Protection;
•  Respiratory protection: AS/NZS1716 Respiratory Protective Devices.

WARNING:

 Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, 

and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth 

defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

•  lead from lead-based paints,
•   crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, 

and 

•  arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type 

of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated 

area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are 

specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
 • 

Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, 

drilling, and other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and 

wash exposed areas with soap and water.

 Allowing dust to get into your 

mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals. 

WARNING: 

Use of this tool can generate and/or disburse dust, which may cause 

serious and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use approved AS/

NZS1716 respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles 

away from face and body.

WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing protection that conforms to 

AS/NZS1270 during use.

 

Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from 

this product may contribute to hearing loss.
