Never saw one like that. I can recall that mentality at different places I've worked, simple maintenance like keeping a machine well lubed, topped off on fluids and day to day things that should be done, but most places and or due to my way of doing things or there was good practice of using a grease gun, I used to carry my own, as I just can't get on a backhoe or excavator etc. and not grease all the fittings, it does not take all that long for these to squeak.
