A hammer-drill is adapted for drilling a hole in masonry and subsequently driving a threaded masonry fastener therein. The hammer-drill has a driving output shaft nested concentrically within a driving output sleeve. The shaft and sleeve both extend forwardly of the tool housing, and both are driven continuously by respective gearing in the tool. The sleeve, however, is driven at a substantially lower rpm than the shaft and at a higher torque. After the hole is drilled, a tubular member is releasably and drivingly coupled to the sleeve. The tubular member encloses the masonry drill bit, which is continually rotated, and the drill bit need not be removed from the tool to seat the fastener. The tubular member has a forward portion provided with a socket for the head of the masonry fastener.
