Inside the current issue
June/July 2009 Tom Sturgess – Moving Against the Flow In an era when owners of lawnmower manufacturers frequently appear keen to divest themselves of their investments, it is something of a rarity to encounter an individual who has travelled in the diametrically opposite direction.
Enter Mr Tom Sturgess.
Mastering the Art of the Five Minute Presentation The five minute presentation is the most challenging of all presentations to create and deliver.

Big may not always be Better
What size makes sense for your business? What are the signs that you may have grown too fast or that you have too large an operation for the circumstances? If you recognise any of the signs, it may be time for you to seriously consider reassessing whether it’s time to stop trying to grow at any cost (at least for the moment) and take control of your business. If you don’t take control of your business, it may end up controlling you.

What's new in this issue
Kubota RT Plus Kubota has released the RT Plus horizontal-shaft range to supplement its long serving workhorse RK range.
The 7.5kW (10hp), 9.3kW (12.5hp) and 10.4kW (14hp) engines (all manual & electric start) are designed for use in applications such as pumps and generators. Their advanced engineering provides increased durability and fuel efficiency.
All RT Plus engines share the same direct injection system. Fuel is injected directly into the combustion chamber. The subsequent combustion process is then transformed directly to the force driving the piston head delivering enhanced horse power and improved fuel efficiency. New multi injection ports increase the number of nozzle sprayers from 4 to 5, whilst downsizing injector puncture to cooperate with the high efficiency injection pump. Hence, pressure of up to 220kg/cm can be achieved. Fuel is broken down into small particles and widespread to cover every combustion spot. This results in complete combustion and reduces air pollution. In addition, the nozzles incorporate an internal edge filter to minimize nozzle clogging as a result of dirt accumulation.
RT Plus pistons employ a unique deep troidal bowl design, to allow the intake air to swirl in the bowl more quickly and smoothly. The design also permits a precise ratio of intake air and fuel mixture. The resultant complete combustion process enhances the engine output, delivering increased levels of torque when operating at low RPM.
RT Plus engines also offer many durability advancements in key areas. For more information contact: Kubota Tractor Australia, 25-29 Permas Way, Truganina 3029 (Locked Bag 36, Tullamarine 3043); (03) 9394 4400 F: (03) 9394 4430 W: www.kubota.com
