bit brush,
•
When dust covers the filter in the visible dust box.
NOTE:
When the HAMMERVAC™ has come to a
stop, the AUTOPULSE™ Filter Cleaning Mechanism
will click three times to clear the filter of debris that
could become lodged. For best performance, position
the HAMMERVAC™ either horizontally or vertically
downward (pointed at the ground) during this cycle.
Empty the dust box often.

Dust
box
port
HEPA
filter
from the user’s face and tap-
ping dust box into a trash
can, pail, or other reasonable
container. For best cleaning
results, connect a vacuum
hose with dust extraction
adapter (Cat. No. 49-90-1959)
to the dust box port and suc-
tion out debris.
6. If necessary, pull the HEPA
filter away from the dust box
and tap clean. Do not clean
with water or compressed
air. After about 1500 holes
or loss of suction, discard and replace HEPA filter
(Cat. No. 49-90-2306).
To
install
the dust box:
1. Slide the dust box into the body of the
HAMMERVAC™.
2. The dust box latches should snap into place.
NOTE
: Do not operate the HAMMERVAC™ without

be installed without HEPA filter.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of
injury, when working
in dusty situations, wear appropriate respiratory
protection or use an OSHA compliant dust extrac-
tion solution.
Keep filter clean. Efficiency of the HAMMERVAC™
is largely dependent on the filter. A dirty filter will
reduce the air flow and overall efficiency of the
system. Do not clean with water or compressed
air. Remove from dust box and tap clean.
Installing/Removing Nozzle
Replace the nozzle:

cleaning results, connect a vacuum hose with dust
extraction adapter (Cat . No. 49-90-1959) to the dust
box port and suction out debris. Pull the HEPA filter
away from the dust box and tap clean. Do not clean
with water or compressed air. After about 1500 holes
or loss of suction, discard and replace HEPA filter
(Cat. No. 49-90-2306).
Maintaining Tool
Keep your tool, battery pack and charger in good
repair by adopting a regular maintenance program.
Inspect your tool for issues such as undue noise,
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, or any other condition that may affect the tool
operation. Return the tool, battery pack, and charger
to a MILWAUKEE service facility for repair. After six
months to one year, depending on use, return the
tool, battery pack and charger to a MILWAUKEE
service facility for inspection.
If the tool does not start or operate at full power with
a fully charged battery pack, clean the contacts on
the battery pack. If the tool still does not work prop-
erly, return the tool, charger and battery pack, to a
MILWAUKEE service facility for repairs.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of
personal injury and
damage, never immerse your tool, battery pack
or charger in liquid or allow a liquid to flow inside
them.
Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from any vents. Keep tool
clean, dry and free of oil or grease. Use only mild
soap and a damp cloth to clean, since certain clean-
ing agents and solvents are harmful to plastics and
other insulated parts. Some of these include gasoline,
turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint thinner, chlorinated
cleaning solvents, ammonia and household deter-
gents containing ammonia. Never use flammable or
combustible solvents around tools.
Repairs
For repairs, return the tool, battery pack and charger
to the nearest authorized service center.
