swoop223,
The reach truck that they are talking about is a mast reach type truck, very common in Europe & Asian countries vs. the pantograph reach common in North America. The mast reach unit are basically stand-up or sit down counter balanced units where the complete mast assembly moves forward or retracts.
I've seen this type truck fitted with a side shifting carton clamp when I visited Japan - It was mounted on a NYK/Nichiyu.
