Congratulations!
You've just purchased the Double K CHALLENGAIR XSTREAM Forced Air Dryer, which
produces warm, high velocity air under pressure to make your grooming tasks easier. Your new dryer
is designed to provide long, reliable service.
Please read this manual carefully and completely before beginning operation of your dryer and
keep this manual in a convenient and safe place for future reference.
A warranty card is included with your dryer and should be filled out completely and mailed to
Double K Industries within 30 days of the purchase date of your dryer to validate your
warranty.
Your CHALLENGAIR XSTREAM has a two year warranty covering the unit against defects in
materials
and workmanship except brushes and filters (see warranty card for complete warranty information).
It is also important to retain your sales receipt as proof of purchase should service ever
be needed.
Your CHALLENGAIR XSTREAM has two brush-type motors. It is important that the brushes be
changed when they become worn down to prevent damage to your dryer motor (brushes are
maintenance components and are not covered under the warranty). We suggest checking the
motor brushes after every 500 hours of dryer use. Please see section on BRUSHES in this manual
for instructions.
A NOTE ABOUT HEAT: Your CHALLENGAIR XSTREAM has no heating element. The
CHALLENGAIR XSTREAM produces heat by a "flow-thru" motor system, meaning the air is
pushed through the motors and is warmed by the natural heat of the motors that occurs during
operation. This means greater electrical savings and efficiency for you, and also that the dryer
will reach maximum air temperature after about 2-4 minutes of operation. Obviously the greater
the room temperature, the warmer the air from the dryer.
ASSEMBLY
To attach hose to dryer: Your dryer hose has a black hose adapter that will screw onto the hose in a
counter-clockwise motion. The adapter with hose attached then fits onto the dryer with a half-twist
motion that locks the adapter onto the dryer. First place the adapter over the snout of the dryer with
the Double K logo facing up then turn hose counter-clockwise until the adapter locks in place, the
Double K logos should then be sitting horizontally.
To remove hose from adapter: Turn the hose clockwise.
ATTACHMENTS: Your dryer is equipped with one hose and 3 twist-on nozzles. To attach
nozzles to hose, twist the nozzles "counter-clockwise". Twist clockwise to remove.
OPERATION - Switches and Controls:
1. Standard Speed/Standard Heat - Turn on the foremost motor switch.
2. High Speed/High Heat - Turn on both motor switches.
REQUIRED MAINTENANCE (The below must be done on a regular basis or as needed in order
warrant the warranty)
FILTER CLEANING: Both the external and internal filters of the CHALLENGAIR XSTREAM should be
kept clean. If the filters become heavily coated with hair and/or dirt, it will reduce the air out-put of your
dryer and can cause damage to the motors or cause the motors to overheat. Never
operate the dryer without all filters in place.
Clean external filter daily by vacuuming or shaking off dirt and hair. Filter may be rinsed in water
if necessary. Let filter dry completely before reinstalling on dryer.
To clean the internal motor filter of the CHALLENGAIR XSTREAM:
1. Unplug dryer.
2. Slide off the burgundy back cover of the dryer. This is a compression fit and will come off
with a little effort.
3. Remove the filter disk on the motor assembly housing by pulling filter off.
4. Clean motor filter disk by vacuuming off hair and dirt, or wash filter gently in cool water.
Shake off excess water and allow to air dry completely.
5. Replace filter disk onto motor assembly housing by pushing into place.
6. Replace dryer back cover.
To clean the discharge filter of the CHALLENGAIR XSTREAM:
1. Locate the two hinged doors towards the front of the dryer (part #2109). Then unscrew the small
screw from the top of the doors. Swing the two doors outward, the discharge filter will be attached
to one of the doors. The door and filter can be removed from the hinge for cleaning. If you wish, the
filter may be washed gently with water (make sure filter is completely dry before reattaching to
dryer), vacuumed or blown off. Please replace filter when necessary.
BRUSHES: Your CHALLENGAIR XSTREAM has two brush-type motors. The brushes should be
checked for wear after approximately 500 hours of use. If the carbon brushes are worn shorter
than 1/4 inch, the brushes should be replaced. Brushes may be ordered from Double K
Industries, or an Authorized Service Center. Please be sure to specify that your dryer is an
XSTREAM, as the brushes are slightly different from one dryer model to another.
To check and/or replace brushes:
1. Unplug electrical cord from wall outlet.
2. Slide off the burgundy back cover from the dryer. This is a compression fit and will come off
with a little effort.
3. Remove the ten screws on the outside of the dryer that hold the two halves of dryer housing in
place. It may be best to lay the dryer on its side while releasing these screws.
4. Each motor will be sitting in place and surrounded in the electrometric motor mounts.
5. Disconnect the motor power wires.
6. NOTE: See figures 1 & 2 (on back page) for an illustration of the brush components.
Front motor:
A. Loosen the two brush retainer screws to loosen the brush retainer, then remove the
brush, replacing it with a new one. Note: IMPORTANT - the brush has a small tab on
the bottom that MUST be fitted into the slot on the motor frame for proper positioning.
B. After the new brush is seated, tighten the brush retainer screws.
C. Repeat steps A-B for brush on other side of motor.
Rear motor:
A. Follow steps A-C above, as outlined for the front motor.
7. Set the motors back into their original positions in their allotted slots of the dryer housing, making
sure that the motor gasket is in good condition and properly installed, then reconnect the motor power
wires.
8. Reattach the screws and nuts around the outside of the dryer making sure the seals are matching up.
9. After the two halves of the dryer housing have been put together push the burgundy rear cover
onto the rear of the dryer.

Center nearest you. All warranty service must be performed by an Authorized Service Center (or
