RGB Lighting

The mouse features cool RGB lighting that adds aesthetic appeal to your workspace. The lighting is integrated into the design and provides a subtle glow. The lighting can be turned off if desired, though specific instructions for this function are not provided in this manual; please refer to the manufacturer's website or product packaging for details.

Optimal for Tight Workspaces

With its 34mm standard trackball and precise tracking system, the TM551 allows you to move the cursor by simply moving your thumb. This design makes it ideal for tight workspaces, busy desks, or when working on non-traditional surfaces like your leg, sofa, bed, or carpet, as it does not require surface movement.

Maintenance

Regular cleaning of your trackball mouse will ensure smooth and precise operation.

Cleaning the Trackball

1. Gently push the trackball from the underside of the mouse to remove it from its housing.
2. Using a soft, lint-free cloth, wipe the trackball to remove any dust or debris.
3. Clean the inside of the trackball housing, paying attention to the three small support points (rollers) that the ball rests on. Use a cotton swab if necessary to reach tight areas.
4. Once clean, reinsert the trackball into its housing until it clicks securely into place.
