A third transport element is operatively associated with the first and second transport elements and movable between a first position in which it is towards the first and second transport elements and at least one second position in which it is away from the first and second transport elements. The third transport element has at least one movable carrier for at least one magazine. When the third transport element is in the first position the carrier is movable between a first position associated with the first transport element for receiving a magazine from same or for depositing a magazine at same and a second position associated with the second transport element for receiving a magazine from same or for depositing a magazine at same. When the third transport element is in its second position the carrier can assume a third position for receiving a magazine for articles to be treated and a fourth position for depositing a magazine for treated articles.
