What do you mean? Machines never need maintenance. I don't even know what that word means.

Hey now, I'm union so thats not my job. The guy whos job it is is on break. Once he gets back from break we can ask him to submit a request to the guy who fills out the request forms to get this thing oiled., but the request guy is on vacation. When he gets back from vacation he can submit the request to the guy who creates the work orders and then that guy can submit the work order to the foreman for approval. Once the foreman approves the work he has to send it to accounting for cost approval for the $0.30 of oil that we need. Accounting is backed out 3 months due to union labor laws... once approved by accounting the foreman can send the repair order to the guy who schedules repairs, but he is on leave due to having an irritated hang nail. he has 6 months paid leave where we have to hold his position, it can not be filled temporarily due to union labor laws. In 6 months when he gets back he can schedule the repair with the technician, who will be backed out 4 years time on repairs due to the 6 month backup in repair orders and mandated 45 minute breaks every 15 minutes...
This is why your tractor squeaks. Enjoy.

All the stuff you just outlined, it's gotta be a whole other person's job just to do that.

Three people, actually. The outliner, the writer, and the proof reader.
That does not take into account the editor or the publisher either as they are a different union...

Sometimes it's that, but don't forget about;
"Are you mad? Do you know how much a gallon of tractor joint grease costs? I mean, I know were a major construction consortium making $20M revenue/Year with a $5M/year margin, but grease is expensive! We've calculated that we'd use one barrel of grease per tractor, per construction site, per 10 years, and after 1000 years of being in the construction business, those barrels are going to add up! You have to think ahead! It's much cheaper to just let the part wear down from lack of lube, because they only have a 25%-50% failure rate per tractor under those conditions. If our odds are good, we'd only have to make repairs 25% of the time, and only once the part fails, once every ten years, saving us .0005% on oil costs per decade! Surely even you, a layperson with not financial training at all, can understand."

Sorry to tell you this, but the noise is probably coming from the tracks. They are not lubed because it would attract much grit and erode the pins very quickly.

But the other tracked vehicle out there wasn't screeching...

Got nothing there. When I used to run an old ' dozer, it was pretty screechy. Maybe that is the reason. Old vs newer.
