Comparing hydraulic pressure in the 3005 and 790 manuals, 2422-2698 psi for the 3005 and 2050 psi for the 790.

Muxster said:It looks like it has a bigger alternator, 40 Amp vs. 20 Amp for the for the 790. Also the main hydraulic pump is a bit bigger, 5.6 GPM vs. 5.4 GPM and they probably did the shim thing on the relief valve to get the higher pressure.
