Your salesman is selling you a load of BS. Most (I would say all but I'm not 100% sure) Kubotas have glow plugs. At this time of year a minute or so of warming up the glow plugs should be all it needs to fire up.

Small amounts carefully administered will not "harm" an engine, but its pretty easy to go too far especially when you have to give it a shot everytime you (or the yahoo that thinks if a little is good a lot is better) try to start it.
