A-5 Cyclone Disassembly

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Well,
Recently I noticed a ball had broken inside my A-5's cyclone. I was told just to unscrew the under-belly screws on the cyclone to take it apart to clean the inside of it.

Well, when I did, behold the infamous screw and bolt and spring that pop'ed out... (Feeder Ratchet Spring)

After countless hours of trying to figure out from the Tippmann A5 schematic how the spring goes back in the cyclone properly, still no clue on how everything goes in.

Anyone have any advice or pictures that can help me reassemble the cyclone?

	These instructions show you how to disassemble and reassemble the cyclone feed with straight forward instructions and pictures. (They are for adding in the vortex mod - but you can skip those parts).
