The Powermatic 3520C lathe is the fourth evolution of this classic lathe with many new and improved features. The 3520C has retained all the features of the previous models, such as the sliding headstock, electronic variable speed with low and high speed ranges, the spindle lock, digital RPM readout, and a laser etched, self-ejecting quill.

They include a movable control box for maximum versatility, adjustable riser blocks for 6" or more of height adjustment, and an increased weight of 705 LBS (786 lbs with the bed extension). Additional features also include a new ergonomic spindle lock design, a digital indexing readout, an Anti-rotation tailstock key for smoother operation, a set of dead centers which hold a spindle for visual comparison, a two position mount for the optional bed extension, and a sliding hammer knockout rod with brass tip.
