The PL600S is powered by a Cummins engine, type QSB 5.9-30-TAA, producing 129 kW. The hydraulic system holds 130.2 l of oil, and the fuel tank 340.3 l. Top speed while working is 6.1 km/h.

On cold planers, milling width, cutting depth and engine power together determine the size class: smaller planers work on trench and duct jobs, larger ones on resurfacing entire stretches of road. The 129 kW engine output quoted for the PL600S and its large 340.3 l fuel tank point to a planer built for continuous operation over longer milling runs without needing to refuel often.

When buying a used cold planer such as the PL600S, the condition of the milling drum and its tool holders matters, since worn or missing cutting picks reduce milling output and load the drum unevenly. The conveyor for the milled material should be checked for cracks and correct running, the height-adjustment hydraulic hoses for leaks, and the Cummins engine for oil loss at the seals. The rubber side skirts around the drum housing are also worth a look, since worn skirts let milled material scatter uncontrolled to the sides during work.
