Radiator
This model has a radiator. It was difficult to replenish the water when the hopper type of machine was installed on a tiller, and farmers were bringing buckets when going out to work on their fields. Kubota was the first in the world to fit a radiator to an agricultural engine to eliminate this inconvenience, and patented the design.
Automatic
This model automatically switched fuel from gasoline for ignition to Petroleum for continuous operation. Up to this point, users had needed to switch manually and time the switch themselves. This grew more convenient with automation. The "auto" in the product name indicates this feature.
