Abstract
A sticker transfer mechanism for a lumber stacker has a swing-away transfer arm for transferring stickers from a sticker conveyor to pans on stacking forks. An arm segment is pivotally mounted to a base section to form the swing-away transfer arm. The pivotal mounting of the arm segment permits the arm segment to pivot when encountering an obstruction.
