Installing/Removing Nozzle
Replace the nozzle:
• After drilling about 1500 holes,
• When the bit brush shows signs
of wear,
• When suction is reduced,
• When dust escapes through the
bit brush during use
To replace the nozzle (Cat. No.
49-90-2300), press in the release
button and pull out from the lower
nozzle assembly. Slide the new
nozzle into the lower nozzle assem-

Attaching the HAMMERVAC™ to a Rotary
Hammer/Hammer Drill
The HAMMERVAC™ is provided with three clamping
collar assemblies and one side handle grip. Choose
the correct clamping collar assembly for the tool
being used (see Specications). The side handle
grip should be unscrewed from one assembly to be
used on another.
1. Turn OFF, remove the battery pack from the
HAMMERVAC™, and disconnect power from
the tool.
2. Remove the tool side handle.
3. Partially screw side handle grip onto clamping
collar assembly.
4. Slide the
HAMMERVAC™ side
handle clamping col-
lar assembly over the
chuck and onto the
neck of the tool. The
clamp lever must be
facing up (3).
5. Attach the side han-
dle clamping collar
assembly onto the
HAMMERVAC™, rst
the upper jaw, then lower jaw.
6. Press down the clamp lever (3) to secure the
clamping collar assembly to the HAMMERVAC™.
7. Rotate the HAMMERVAC™ and side handle grip
to the desired position, and tighten securely.
Adjusting the Side Handle Position
1. Loosen the side handle clamping collar assembly
by unscrewing the side handle grip until the side
handle clamping collar assembly rotates freely.
2. Rotate the side handle grip to the desired position.
3. Tighten the side handle grip securely.
Installing/Removing the Bit
Slide the bit through the nozzle and then install

Setting the Drilling Depth
1. Fit the HAMMERVAC™ to the Tool and Bit.
2. Press and hold the depth gauge button and slide
the depth gauge to the desired depth. The drill-
ing depth is the last visible measurement shown
when viewed from the top of the tool. To ensure
the HAMMERVAC™ is properly set to the tool,
bit, and desired depth, always drill a test hole.
Drill Depth
NOTE: When using the optional Crevice Tool ac-
cessory, set the drill depth to 0.
