Replacement of Mouse Balls
If a mouse fails to operate or should it perform erratically, it
may need a ball replacement. Mouse balls are now available
as FRU (Field Replacement Unit). Because of the delicate
nature of this procedure, replacement of mouse balls should
only be attempted by properly trained personnel. Before
proceeding, determine the type of mouse balls by examining
the underside of the mouse. Domestic balls will be larger and
harder than foreign balls. Ball removal procedures differ
depending upon the manufacture of the mouse. Foreign balls
can be replaced using the pop-off method. Domestic balls are
replaced by using the twist-off method. Mouse balls are not
usually static-sensitive. However, excessive handling can
result in sudden discharge. Upon completion of ball
replacement, the mouse may be used immediately. It is
recommended that each person have a pair of spare balls for
maintaining optimum customer satisfaction. Any customer
missing his balls should contact the local personnel in charge
of removing and replacing these necessary items.
