I have a older A-5 that i bought from my friend. For some reason when i have used it for about maybe 2 - 3 hours of play, right out of the blue it will just start chopping the balls in the hopper and it will not loud another ball. It will dry fire a few times and then i have to loud manual, it will shot maybe two balls and then do it all over again.

Does anyone know why this may be happening ?? Or how to fix it ???

The ratchet broke. Any PB store will have a ratchet for your Cyclone.

If your playing a lot this winter you might consider the TechT Vortex ratchet kit.
