INSTRUCTIONS. 

Before use, read this instruction  

sheet, the tool and dust extractor manuals, and all 

labels on the bit, tool, and dust extractor. Failure to 

follow the warnings and instructions may result in 

serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for 

future reference.

• Use only with dust extractors with 'self-cleaning' 

filters.

• Use the proper bit for the power tool. The bit 

must  properly fit the tool.

• Wear a dust mask or use an OSHA compliant 

dust extraction solution 

when working in dusty 

situations. Dust particles can harm your lungs.

• 

This product is suitable for collection of silica 

dust when used in accordance with these in-

structions. To reduce the risk of health hazards 

from other vapors or dust, do not vacuum car-

cinogenic, toxic or hazardous materials

 such as 

asbestos, arsenic, barium, beryllium, lead, pesticides 

or other health endangered materials.

• Ensure unit is properly attached to power tool 

before use.

• 

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 paint

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other 

masonry products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lum-

ber.

  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.

 

• The  unit  is  compliant  with  Table  1  of  OSHA 

Standard  29CRF  1926.1153  assuming  (1)  it  is 

used in accordance with MILWAUKEE instruc-

tions;  (2)  it  is  attached  to  a  dust  collector  that 

has  a  filter  with  99%  or  greater  efficiency  and 

a  filter-cleaning  mechanism.  Please  reference 

 

https://www.osha.gov for further details on com-

pliance methods.

• The  unit  is  compliant  as  an  objective  data 

solution of OSHA 

Standard  29CRF  1926.1153  

when it used without a dust collector,  

assuming it is used in accordance with  

MILWAUKEE instructions. Please reference  

https://www.osha.gov for further details on com-

pliance methods.

To

 install 

the dust cap, thread the cap into the dust 

shroud lock. Pinch at the compression locks and twist 

to lock in place.

OPERATION

With dust extractor:

1. 

Before each use, check the plastic film for holes. 

NOTICE!

 Discard and replace the dust cap if holes 

appear. The unit is no longer OSHA compliant 

once the plastic film is punctured. Remove debris 

from dust cap before each use.

NOTE: 

Remove debris by wiping with a rag. If using 

water, make sure the dust cap is dry before use.

2. Remove bit from hammer.

3. Compress the dust cap by pushing down on it. 

Twist the spring rims together to lock.

4. Line up the dust cap to the hammer nose. Feed 

bit through the unit and lock bit into place on the 

hammer.

5. Attach the strap to the rotary hammer by stretching 

it through the handle and threading beads through 

the strap mounting tabs. Ensure a tight fit. Cut ex

-

cess strap at the next bead to prevent interference.

         

                              

6. Remove the vacuum plug and attach the  

Milwaukee Power Tool Adaptor (49-90-1957) or 

similar size adaptor to the vacuum port. Connect 

the extractor hose to the adaptor.

7. Turn the dust extractor to "automatic-cleaning" 

mode.

8. Begin drilling. 

NOTICE!

 Bit may be hot after use. 

Empty dust cap into a bucket placed on the ground 

next to the drilling location after drilling each hole.

NOTE:

 Use caution when drilling in water or wet 

areas. If the bit gets wet, stop operation and let the 

bit dry out thoroughly. Concrete must be properly 

cured before drilling. Concrete dust will solidify in 

the bit if wet.

9. To release unit, pull strap forward and release from 

strap mounting tabs. Decompress the dust cap 

and twist the spring rims to lock during storage.

10. 

Use a HEPA-filtered vacuum to clean any re

-

sidual dust from the work area.    

Without dust extractor:

1. 

Before each use, check the plastic film for holes. 

NOTICE!

 Discard and replace the dust cap if holes 

appear. The unit is no longer OSHA compliant 

once the plastic film is punctured. Remove debris 

from dust cap before each use.

NOTE: 

Remove debris by wiping with a rag. If using 

water, make sure the dust cap is dry before use.

2. Remove bit from hammer.
