[2] Cushman produced engines for farm equipment, pumps, lawn mowers, and boats.

Cushman began making Auto-Glide scooters in 1936 as a means to increase the sale of Husky engines during the Great Depression.

Cushman scooters featured an automatic centrifugal clutch, which allowed the rider to twist the right grip to accelerate.

Oddly, the throttle twisted forward during acceleration, opposite the usual pattern in most other motorcycles and scooters.

After scooter production ceased, Cushman manufactured golf carts, industrial vehicles, and turf maintenance equipment.

Small and light duty, they have been used for ice cream sales, mall and stadium maintenance, and by NYPD.
