Not as far as I know. You have to manually turn it off. I've used mine many times since I got it and it's always been like that on mine.

The only thing that you have to do is, slide the bow thru center it and tighten the set screw. To string the cross bow just use a good old mud bucket or anything that is narrow enough and sturdy enough to push the crossbow down hard enough to set the string. That's it.

I use the Barnett Cranking device. It is a bit noisy, but easy to use. I believe that quick reloading after a miss won't make any difference. That deer will probably be long gone.

You can select to turn off this function, I assume you've done this by accident. While the sight is blank press and hold the power/trigger button. Keep it held in and it will cycle through the options wait until you get jolt with yards or meters. You will know when jolt is selected as it will vibrate

there is a little red button near the handle you push it back to take the safety off. It will take some doing the first time cause it's tight. Be careful. You don't want this to go off.

That is how mine is. As it shows in the photo. Perhaps you have received a defective crossbow.

It has an automatic safety that can only be released if an arrow (bolt) it properly seated

If you leave it on,the sensor will turn off automatic after a preset time and will turn on when the scope is moved.

My brother's crossbow is a little over 300fps. It stops the bolt at about 10-12 inches of penetration. You should be fine.

yea leave it off until you need it then turn it on when you do there is no reason for it to be on when hunting from a stand. push one button and it is on. I have Dunn this with all my electronic sights when hunting with them never have had A problem

I have not have that problem so I would suggest you ask your local archery shop. Not sure how to secure those since they are aluminum.

Has a sticker on it when you get it that says it stops all speedbows and crossbows with fieldpoints so I would say yes mine only go in a couple inches around 300fps

Yes I do. I have had no trouble with them being out of balance. When I shot my crossbow out they were nearly right on. I is likely a combination of the crossbow (wicked ridge) and a good arrow. Hope this is a help. I would recommend them.

There is a switch on the side that you rotate all the way to the right. This should keep it from turning off automatically.

There is a safety button on the handle that you push in and then you pull the trigger under it. Very nice safety feature. If you release the trigger, it shuts off. Very easy to disengage the unit from the wheel unit as well as to re-engage it.

Once I put the crossbow into place, it was a little easier to balance. It's on a bookcase sort of pinned standing. It is precarious. Going to look for a stand for it later. Great detail!

Yes, there is a safety on top of the stock behind the scope that can only be released when the crossbow is properly cocked and a bolt in place. It works well and is very intuative.
