As a forklift truck, the Jungheinrich DFG 680 belongs to the Jungheinrich Forklift series.
It will not go faster than 25 km/h — a working pace, not a travelling one. Operating weight comes to 11,000 kg. It carries 8,000 kg.
Jungheinrich DFG/TFG – diesel and LPG trucks on a shared platform
Jungheinrich clearly separates its IC-engine trucks by fuel: "DFG" marks the diesel trucks, "TFG" the otherwise identical LPG variants — both lines largely share chassis and mast and differ mainly in the power unit, often rugged Kubota industrial engines.

The digits after the code in practice indicate the capacity class, with the last two digits usually marking capacity in hundreds of kilograms and the leading digit the series generation — visible on models such as DFG 316, DFG 425 and DFG 670, and their TFG counterparts from TFG 660 to TFG S80.
Models recorded here span own weights of 3,000 to 13,600 kg, capacities of 1,600 to 9,000 kg, and lift heights of 3,000 to 6,570 mm, with engines of 1,999 to 5,737 cm³ displacement — the bucket covers light through heavy diesel/LPG trucks.
For a used truck, beyond mast condition, check the Kubota engine's condition (oil consumption, cooling system) and, on LPG models, the tightness of the tank-exchange system and vaporiser. Cross-checking operating hours against the maintenance book is worthwhile given how long-lived Jungheinrich chassis tend to be.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
