Ideal for Tight Workspaces

Maintenance
Cleaning the Trackball
To ensure smooth and precise tracking, it is recommended to periodically clean the trackball and its internal mechanism. The trackball is easily removable for this purpose.
- Remove the Trackball: Gently push the trackball from the bottom opening of the mouse or carefully pry it out from the top.
- Clean the Ball: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe the trackball clean. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Clean the Internal Rollers: Inside the trackball cavity, you will see small rollers or sensors. Use a cotton swab or a soft, dry brush to carefully remove any dust, lint, or debris that may have accumulated on these components.
- Reinsert the Trackball: Place the clean trackball back into its cavity, ensuring it sits securely and moves freely.
