What makes this setup stand out isn’t just the machine itself, it’s how quickly and safely operators can switch between attachments with OilQuick.

As operator Travis Grimes explains, the system allows him to change tools without leaving the cab:

• From shear to grapple in about four minutes.
• From grapple to magnet in about three minutes.

That means one operator can handle multiple tasks—sorting, lifting, or cleaning up—without calling in another machine or pulling employees away from their jobs.

Fewer Delays, More Productivity
Before OilQuick, swapping tools could slow down workflow and require extra manpower. Now, attachments like the grapple and magnet are just a button press away.

“You don’t even have to get out of the cab to hook up any of the magnet service controllers,” Travis explains.
The result? Faster job changes, less downtime, and a smoother operation across the entire yard.

One Machine, Endless Flexibility
With OilQuick, the SENNEBOGEN 835E Vario Tool becomes more than just a material handler—it becomes a true multi-tool. One operator, one machine, and quick access to the right attachment for the job.

For Grimes Iron & Metal, that flexibility is a game changer: “With the way it’s set up, you can literally do everything with that one machine,” says Revel Wilson, Travis Grimes’ son and manager of the yard.

The Bottom Line
From picking up heavy scrap with the grapple to cleaning up with the magnet, the OilQuick system makes every switch seamless. And that’s helping Grimes Iron & Metal keep their recycling operation fast, efficient, and future-ready.
