The carrier drive mechanism disclosed drives the pan carrier upwardly toward the transfer conveyor during unstacking and downwardly away from the transfer conveyor during stacking. A control mechanism is disclosed for selectively operating the transfer conveyor in a pan unstacking mode and in a pan pass-through mode and in a pan stacking mode.
