  • 15-amp quad receptacle for easy reach or powered accessories
  • Sliding headstock with electronic variable speed
  • Air nozzle with quick connect for clearing dust/chips
  • Brass-tipped knockout bar concentrates the action in the sliding handle (brass tip will not damage drive centers)
  • Magnetic-backed moveable control box for versatility and safety
  • Set of dead centers which hold a spindle for visual comparison
  • Spindle lock and built in spindle indexing on the headstock for drilling hole patterns, routing flutes, and other equally spaced features


At more than 900 pounds, the 4224B is the biggest, heaviest, and most capable lathe Powermatic has ever built. It expands the limits of creative possibility, and takes your passion to a whole new level. With newly-designed, top of its class features, the 4224B pushes the limits of design, innovation, and durability.

This is a very solid wood lathe. Love turning with it. The only thing I would improve is make the motor a soft start. Yes I can turn down the rpm before starting but at this price point I shouldn’t have to.

Likes -Electric sockets convenient for accessories - A+Overhead lights A+Vacuum chuck included - great! A+ Rubber seal on vacuum chuck leaves marks on the thing being held - BIndexing is nice but the locking mechanism is a PITA - B-Handle on the tail-stock wheel is heavy and auto turns open - removed the handle and it has been fineTool rest locking mechanism - Pinch gap - C+Tool rest locking handle - stripped out after 2 years use - parts only get a 90 warrantee - replacement will cost $52 with shipping FMotor and speed controls A+Banjo locking mechanism A+Tail stock Swing-away mechanism - BOverall grade A or A- This is a very capable machine and I would recommend it in spite of its weaknesses but if you don't have a need for this capacity or the vacuum chuck I'd recommend the 3520c over this machine.

The shipping palette was slightly damage in transit, but the lathe wasn't harmed (minor scuffs to paint in a couple places). Lathe itself works great...I've turned and taught on an older version of this lathe...love the upgrades in this version! Directions are pretty skimpy though (for example, there's no info on the minimum air compressor capacity is needed to reliably use the built-in vacuum chuck).

Everything went smoothly for delivery and set up. I really enjoy my "Mustard Monster". Turns large stock without a complaint or vibration.
