loader Lumbering 
n. See 1942 quote.
- 1942 LOADER. Loads logs from the landing on to the cars. Normally a crew of one head and two second loaders, working to a close routine, keeps pace with the logs brought in by one yarding machine. When yarding from a cold-deck pile at the rate of forty to sixty loads a day two crews are used, each consisting of one head and one second loader. These alternate through the day, spelling each other off.
- 1963 After the logs have been yarded to the "side," a loader places the tongs on the log at a point somewhat behind its centre of gravity.
