use a capped pen or eraser side of a pencil and turn the unit over and push the trackball out through the hole on the bottom. Use a paper towel or napkin to clean the trackball surface then use a q=tip or your finger nail to clean off the white (YES THEY ARE WHITE) sensor pads where the trackball sits. Lastly, make sure the tracking sensor (clear-reddish window looking thingy) is wiped off and clear of debris. The whole process should take less then 60 secs.

Put the tip of your little finger or a pencil into the hole underneath and push up. Turn it off first.

There is a hole under the trackball. Use a retracted pen to push the ball out. Press gently to replace it.

I push mine out from the hole on the bottom of the mouse. I clean mine pretty regularly with a Q-Tip.

Turn the mouse over. You'll see a spot where you can insert something to pop out the ball. Be sure to clean the trackball itself as well as inside where it sits. It will collect lint over time. Just wipe it out with a clean cloth.

There is a hole in the bottom of the trackball directly below the ball. Pushing up through that hole with the eraser end of a pencil will pop the ball out. The ball easily pops back in with a little pressure.

Just use the back side of a pencil, eraser side, to push it out from the back side of the mouse. I’ve done it many times when the sensors get grungy. Ball just pops out, you can clean, then pops back in just as easy.
