I just purchased an A5 and I put an E grip on it. The first time i tried to shoot it the cyclone won't advance. I use the manual feed and it still won't fire more than one ball. I have a clear ratchet and I am still confused on why it won't work. Everything is up to par and I have a new CO2 tank. Any ideas??? |

have you lubricated your cyclone piston? try taking the hose4 off and shooting, to test if there is air coming out. ------------- http://www.anomationanodizing.com - My Site

you most likely are not getting air to the cyclone. make sure you are
getting air going through the banjo fitting and the hose into the
cyclone.

yea, that happened to me. there are two small screws on the banjo line, or w/e that is called, the tube the goes to the cyclone feed. the one screw facing outward has a hole in it that lets co2 through. If the hole in the screw isn't lined up with the tube, then no co2 will get through so it won't cycle. so, wat i did was turned the screw until the it looked like this (|) and not like this (-)
