Logitech M535 Disassembly

Introduction

My little Logitech M535 fell out of my backpack and the bodywork split apart in the front. Just by pressing the two parts together there was no way to fix it and I didn’t want to replace it because it was still working just fine. So I took inspiration from the teardown guide of the Anywhere MX because I figured it was not going to be that different… in fact the construction of this mouse is way simpler than the MX!

Step 2 Open the battery box

Slide the cover open to get to the battery

Step 3

Pull the sticker inside of the battery box slowly: the glue is pretty strong and the space is tight. A butter knife works alright. You need to remove enough of the sticker to get to the bottom of the battery box.

Step 4

The little screw is approximately there (it occurred to me I should write a guide only after I closed the mouse).
Gently pull apart the top and the bottom at this stage with some care to avoid breaking the internal plastic.
