I just recently bought a used c98 with the cyclone feeder. The guy didnt send me a manual for the cyclone... and I'm wondering, do I simple use the same paintball gun oil to lubricate all the cyclone parts? Or do I use a grease to lubricate the rachet and axle parts? Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Marker oil will work just fine. If you really really feel the need to, you can go grab a tub of Dow-33 lube, but the issue with grease on an external part like the cyclone is that you're more likely to get dirt, mud, sticks, and leaves all stuck in it. Stick with the oil for now.
