REQUIRED MAINTENANCE
FILTERS:
(The maintenance obligations below must be performed on a regular basis or as needed to
protect warranty status)
If the lters become heavily coated with hair and/or dirt, it will reduce the air output of your
dryer and can cause damage to the motor or cause the motor to overheat.
*Never operate the dryer without lter in place.
Filter Cleaning: The top lter may be cleaned after each use by wiping away hair that is on
the lter. The lter must periodically be shaken out, or vacuumed o to remove excessive dirt,
hair and dander that is in the lter. The lter may also be washed with water and mild soap. Let
dry completely before installing back on the dryer. (Never run dryer without lter in place.)
Cleaning Dryer Interior: Dust will accumulate inside the dryer. Blow clean as needed using a
Challengair Forced Air Dryer or suitable high pressure air outlet.
Any maintenance not explained in this manual should be performed by Double K Industries,
or an Authorized Service Center. Call Double K Industries for the name of an Authorized
Service Center nearest you. All warranty service must be performed by an Authorized Service
Center (or Double K Industries) to protect your warranty status.

ASSEMBLY:
Dryer and Stand
The stand tube assembly is pre-assembled and wrapped in paper. The stand tube
assembly is compressed and held in position by the center clamp. Loosen the handle
on the clamp and allow the spring to extend the tube assembly. Place the end of the
larger outer tube down into the center of the stand base. Twist and push down rmly
(see ref #55, 57 on parts diagram). On the dryer head assembly, move the yoke to
a 90-degree angle to the dryer. Lift the dryer and position over the assembled
stand and slide the tube of the yoke into the upper stand tube (see ref #49, 53). With
clamping handle still loose, raise or lower dryer to desired height and tighten stand
adjustment handle as explained in the next paragraph (see ref #45).
Stand Height Adjustment and Dryer Angle Adjustment:
Your dryer has "ratchet" type adjustment handles on the stand and the dryer. To
tighten an adjustment handle, turn the handle clockwise as far as is comfortable. As
necessary, for additional tightening, pull the handle out to disengage the "ratchet"
and while keeping the handle pulled out, turn the handle counter-clockwise to a
suitable position for continued tightening. Release the handle to engage the
"ratchet" again and repeat these procedures until the adjustment handle is tight.
Reverse the turning direction of these actions to loosen an adjustment handle.
NOZZLE: The nozzle at the end of the extension arm may be rotated to change the
direction of the airow. Simply rotate nozzle to the desired direction (see ref #42).
Optional Attachment: A hose and nozzle kit is available for the Challengair 9000
II. To attach the hose to the dryer, insert hose end into the arm extension nozzle. To
attach nozzles to the hose, simply push nozzle securely onto the hose end.
Dryer Stand: Your dryer stand has two locking casters to keep the dryer from rolling
inadvertently. To lock wheels, press down on the lock arm that has “ON” engraved on
it. To unlock, press down on the lock arm that has “OFF” engraved (see below). For
long life and smoother operation, avoid rolling casters through hair that has fallen
on the oor.
