The Lenhard EH272 Petrol Chainsaw is a heavy-duty commercial power saw designed for tree felling, timber cutting, farm work, forestry and demanding land-clearing jobs.

The model is built around the familiar 272-style professional chainsaw platform and is commonly sold in Kenya as a 72cc class saw with a 24-inch guide bar, making it suitable for medium-to-large timber. Import records also confirm the Lenhard EH272 model being supplied into Kenya.
