My cyclone on my Tippmann a5 won't spin when I fire fast

My cyclone on my tippmann a5 wont spin the rachet is intact, if you fire slow with gaps it spins but when you fire quicker it stops spinning

  • Anonymous Aug 26, 2013

    A friend had this problem as well. Turned out to be a banjo fitting. If it isn't lined up with the hose the cyclone won't receiver proper pressure.

SOURCE: tippmann a5 e trigger hall

Make sure when reassembled the pin that the solenoid kicks upward to release
the trigger/hammer junction, isnt jammed in the parts. It is easy to pinch that rod
when reassembling. I installed an On/Off switch at the bottom of my trigger handle.
You can find help with A-5's at this A-5 owners group forum. Look for my photos of
the install if you decide you'd like to try it. It makes assembling the gun easy as there
is no power to accidentally fire the pin making it jump out of it's alignment groves.

SOURCE: A5 freezing up

There might be a couple of reasons for the malfunction. It is my experience that the upgrades made for Tippmann not always improve the performance of the guns, in fact they may cause problems like the one mentioned. I would try to switching your set up back to see if the problem continues and if it does make sure you have a fully loaded tank and that the internals on your cyclone are functioning correctly.

My a5 has no pressure with my flatline installed, and works fine with stock barrel... pleASe explain

Have you chrono'd the gun? This test velocity. This makes no sense unless your
gun is actually shooting VERY slow. In that case the way the flatline works, the ball rolls thru the barrel,
would really slow down a ball passing thru. That is my bet, low velocity. I use the same gun.
Adjust your allen screw in to make more pressure and try the flatline. Man I love the flatline with
an e-grip. Scares the **** outta the long distance players!
Here is your manual.

Hello, I have an old Tippman A5 (about 5-6 years

You will have to buy a different barrel for the A5, I would suggest ansgear.com, rockstartactical.com, or ebay. Make sure that you get the right threads along with an apex capeable front. I would suggest the sly carbon fibur barrels, or get a autococker barrel and a lapco adapter for your A5. Hope this helps if you have any questions just let me know.

I have an a5 paintball gun with electronic trigger, when i hook it to air and pull the trigger, the hopper is not moving!!!

On the A5 the hopper or Cyclone feed is powered thru a small tube on the feeder side
of the gun. Make sure that tube is connected and if so, pull it off and see if air is flowing
thru it when you pull the trigger. If not, the internal passage may be blocked. Tear down
the gun and clean out the obstruction. If there is a pulse of air coming out the tube when firing
then it may be the Cyclone feed mechanism. Just unscrew the 3 phillips head bolts
under the Cyclone and observe the air driven gear drive. Air up the marker and see
what is moving or not moving. Complete replacement upgrade Cyclone gear drives
are available that say they increase performance if you cant get it moving.

Paintballs will fall out of the barrel of my tippmann 98 custom, randomly when the gun is not being fired. I am not sure how to fix this, or if it can be fixed. Mechanically the gun fires and aims great....

Get another ball detente from ebay, this one is the cheapest one I could find.

I took apart my magazine to clean it and now I can not remember how to but it back together.

The A5 is a very compact and simple gun, I am attaching a link to the manual which shows in the detail the procedure.

Tippmann a5 cycles just not fast

The cyclone is supposed to feed at least 15 p/s if you are having that problem I would take apart the cyclone make is clean, you would not believe how much paint can get in there. I would check the hose and after that the o-ring on the cylinder piston. Another thing that might be messing the cyclone is the speed on the marker or the valve itself not sending the amount of CO2 or air to the cyclone. I hope this helps.
