Powermatic warranty for power tools
The short version
Powermatic doesn't cover everything, but keeps woodworking machine and accessories covered to 5 years. That full coverage is shorter than most of the 45 brands we compared, which typically cover 2 years in full. You don't need to register to get this coverage.
From Powermatic's published warranty, checked October 2026.
