Description
Number of Pages: 24
This is a reproduction, not a photocopy, of an original Powermatic 3520 Wood Lathe Instructions and Parts Manual. This manual contains operation instructions, adjustments, maintenance, lubrication, and a complete set of exploded view part diagrams with descriptions. See index below.

The manual above may help you operate and maintain your wood lathe, but if you would like to learn more about proper woodturning techniques and using your lathe, I highly recommend you check out this book here: The Wood Lathe - The Missing Shop Manual. Even if you’ve been woodturning for years, you’ll wish this was the manual that originally came with your new lathe. This no-nonsense book focuses on user-friendly solutions and instructions on wood lathe usage. |

Overview:
I have collected this information for many years and have found the information they contain to be priceless in using and setting up the machines properly. I believe this manual will be a valuable resource of knowledge that will provide a lot of helpful information that is often hard to find. My manuals are not photocopies. I maintain a high standard of quality in my reproductions. Most of the manuals I reproduce look better than their originals. I have professionally digitally edited every page, and removed stains, wrinkles and handwriting. All of the manuals are printed on thick white paper to withstand shop wear and tear.
