The Impact 1040 filter assembly (page 805-269A, 15 parts) holds the 60 mesh manifold filter 730-067, the filter housing, support and filter springs, the bypass valve assembly 800-925 and the PrimeSpray valve assembly 700-258. A blocked filter shows as pulsing, spitting, a poor pattern or low pressure, and it is the first thing to check before a pump part.
What the filter assembly does
Airless sprayers usually filter coating in three places: a suction or inlet strainer, a filter at the pump or manifold, and a filter in the gun. The manifold filter on the Impact 1040 is the one in the filter assembly on the sprayer itself, upstream of the gun filter. Titan lists a full-size manifold filter on its Impact models.
A partly blocked filter causes pressure loss, pulsing and spitting. That is why Titan's manuals tell you to inspect the pump filter and gun filter and clean or replace them, and why dirty filters appear in the manual's lists of causes for a poor pattern and a clogged tip.
Parts on the 805-269A page
The Impact 1040 filter assembly page lists fifteen parts:

When you take the filter out to clean it, the O-ring and gasket are the seals you disturb. If either is damaged or flattened, replace it, because a leak at the filter housing is an external fluid leak.
Bypass valve and prime/spray valve
The rest of the page is the valve group:
- 800-925 bypass valve assembly.
- 700-258 PrimeSpray valve assembly, with 700-697 valve handle, 700-252B cam base and 700-759 groove pin.
- 812-003 fitting and 227-033 pipe plug.
The PRIME/SPRAY valve is the handle you turn to prime and to relieve pressure. Titan's manuals name leaving it in SPRAY as a cause of a sprayer that will not prime, so check the handle position before you suspect the pump. This guide does not describe how the valve is taken apart; use the manual for that.
The inlet screen and the gun filters
Two other filters sit outside this page. The inlet screen 710-046 is on the main assembly page. The gun filters are on the 1040 accessories page: 0089957 coarse (green, 2-pack), 0089959 100 mesh (yellow) and 0089960 extra fine (red). We suggest no mesh for your coating; follow the coating maker's guidance and your gun's manual.
Symptoms that point to the filters
Filter-related symptoms (Titan's 640 and 1040 manuals agree)
| Symptom | What the manuals list | Check first |
|---|---|---|
| Will not prime | PRIME/SPRAY valve left in SPRAY; clogged pump filter or inlet screen; clogged siphon tube | Valve handle position, then clean the filter and inlet screen |
| Pressure will not build or hold | Clogged filter or screen, worn tip, air leak, worn fluid-section parts | Clean filters, then inspect the tip |
| Poor spray pattern | Worn tip, tip too large, clogged pump filter, gun filter or inlet screen | Replace the tip or use a smaller orifice, and clean the filters |
Titan's Impact manuals give the full lists. Follow your own model's manual.
The order that costs least is the same each time: valve handle, filters and screen, then the tip, and only then the fluid section. If the filters and tip are clean and the problem remains, the pump is next, and the 1040 fluid section page lists those parts.

The Short Version
The Impact 1040 filter assembly page lists the 60 mesh manifold filter 730-067, two housings, springs, seals, the bypass valve 800-925 and the PrimeSpray valve 700-258. Check the valve handle, clean the filters and screen, and check the tip before you buy any pump part. The Impact 1040T uses a different filter page.
