Did u cock the gun? The cyclone should feed automatically unles your low on air.
My Set-Up:
A-5 w/ Reponse Trigger
16" DYE Boomstick
32 Degrees Expansion Chamber

It's all I need for the rec ball I play once or twice a month.

if the manual advqnce isn't working then you have quite a problem.

Open up the bottom, and see that everything is in its place.

The manual feed should still work even if there is no air supply hooked up.

At least someone in this thread besides theguy has a brain.

Id guess the ratchet sprocket gizmo got torn up somehow. Take the bottom plate off and look for obvious damage.

<3 plastic parts.

I had the same problem with my A-5 when I first got it. Turned out that the feeder housing bolt was to long and got in the way of the ratchet. This made it so you couldn't use the manual feed as well. If this is the case with yours you can either shorten the bolt up your self or call tippmann for a new one.
A-5 with...
R/T
LP kit
Reg. (stabalizer)
dropforword
2x trigger
47ci/3000psi crossfire tank (I know..., it's small)
polished internals
J&J 12in.

Everytime that I hear about a problem like this I consider how lucky I am that mine worked fine out of the box. Sorry you have to deal with the hassle. I hope tippmann makes it up to you.
Think and give them all you have from the beginning, and never weaken!
