I haven't actually done the job that you are wanting to do, but I was looking into it once. I ended up getting a 210 with a sawbuck already on it, but what I found out was it is possible. You have to run it off of one of the legs you have to take the two lines off the legs one to run the sawbar down and one for up the one that you use for down you will have to put in a splitter to turn the one line into two then you will have one line to push the bar down and one to turn the chain. Hopefully this helps like I said I've not actually done it but I didn't ask some older loggers I know about it cause I was going to try it on a 150 Prentice I used to have.

I would just get another valve and plumb it in after the 4 lever valve bank if I remember right you would need pressure and return and you would need swivels to go down through the tower. Then just run the case drain back to the tank

I think you need 35 gpm min. on a [ctr] bucksaw. A 110 may not have that much.

My 110 has a tandem pump 25gpm per section. Another option would be rig up another pto and pump for a designated saw pump then run lines and put in a valve
