Logitech MX Vertical Feet Replacement

Introduction

Use this guide remove and replace worn out mouse feet (also called skates or pads) on the bottom of a Logitech MX Vertical wireless mouse.

If thoroughly heated, the mouse feet can be cleanly removed, but you may need replacement feet if one rips or some of its adhesive is left behind.

The mouse's unique shape prevents it from laying flat. If you need to, lay it button-side down onto a soft towel to prevent wobble.

If you're planning to reuse your existing mouse feet, note that the adhesive needs to be thoroughly heated for them to be cleanly removed.
Heat an iOpener and apply it to the feet on the mouse's underside for about two minutes.
Alternatively, a hair dryer or a heat gun may also be used, but be careful not to overheat the mouse.
