    • There are screws hidden beneath the PTFE skates. Carefully lift one end with a pointed tool and remove completely.

    • Avoid bending or stretching the skates excessively, they are easy to crease. Try to maintain a 30 degree angle and pry gently for best results.

  4. Logitech Lift Teardown, Separating the Base: crwdns2935265:04crwdnd2935265:01crwdnd2935265:03crwdne2935265:0 Logitech Lift Teardown, Separating the Base: crwdns2935265:04crwdnd2935265:02crwdnd2935265:03crwdne2935265:0 Logitech Lift Teardown, Separating the Base: crwdns2935265:04crwdnd2935265:03crwdnd2935265:03crwdne2935265:0
    • Use rubbing alcohol to clean the leftover adhesive, 91% isopropyl alcohol works well and does not damage the plastic. The PTFE skates will stick better during reassembly by doing this.

    • Remove the five screws highlighted in the photo. They are identical so mixing them is fine.

    • Gently pull the base apart from the top shell to expose a gap. The slot where the battery inserts into is a solid place to grip.

    • The base an the top shell are connected with a delicate ribbon cable. Do not use excessive force or it may be damaged.

    • Use a guitar pick or similar plastic tool to further split the base from the top shell.

    • There is a clip that holds the two pieces together, highlighted in the second photo. Running the guitar pick across that area should pop it open.

    • The base and top shell should separate with minimal force after the clip is undone.

    • The base an the top shell are connected with a delicate ribbon cable. Do not use excessive force or it may be damaged.

    • On the circuit board of the base, there is a connector holding the ribbon cable in place. Gently flip the black piece up with a fingernail and the cable can be removed with minimal force.

    • The sensor board is connected to the base with 3 identical screws. Remove them and the board can be lifted out easily by the battery contacts.

    • The power switch slider is loose and should drop out after the circuit board is removed. It can only be reassembled in one direction, so there's no need to keep track of the orientation.

    • Remove all 11 screws that are visible in the top shell. They are identical so just keep them together in a safe place.

    • Gently pry at the rubber grip using a plastic tool like a spudger. This piece is held in strongly by a few plastic clips.

    • Continue prying around the grip, then pull the pieces apart.

    • This is the most challenging part of the disassembly because it takes quite a bit of force, is hard to grip, and it is difficult to tell if something will break. Do not give up, it gets easier from here.

  12. Logitech Lift Teardown, Removing Right Button: crwdns2935265:012crwdnd2935265:01crwdnd2935265:03crwdne2935265:0 Logitech Lift Teardown, Removing Right Button: crwdns2935265:012crwdnd2935265:02crwdnd2935265:03crwdne2935265:0 Logitech Lift Teardown, Removing Right Button: crwdns2935265:012crwdnd2935265:03crwdnd2935265:03crwdne2935265:0
    • The right button is attached with two screws, as highlighted. These are different from screws from previous steps, so keep them separate.

    • Gently lift the connecting piece with a tool, then continue lifting it while also pushing it forward, as seen in the third photo.

  13. Logitech Lift Teardown, Removing Left Button: crwdns2935265:013crwdnd2935265:01crwdnd2935265:03crwdne2935265:0 Logitech Lift Teardown, Removing Left Button: crwdns2935265:013crwdnd2935265:02crwdnd2935265:03crwdne2935265:0 Logitech Lift Teardown, Removing Left Button: crwdns2935265:013crwdnd2935265:03crwdnd2935265:03crwdne2935265:0
    • The button is held in place by a beam and its corresponding slot, which is why it cannot be lifted straight up.

    • Take out the 2 screws for the left button and remove it in the same way as the right button. The screws for these two buttons are the same.

    • Putting the buttons back on is fairly straightforward. Just press down while pulling it backwards, the opposite motion of taking them off, and they should snap into place. Make sure to put the right button on first.

  14.

    • Take out the screw holding the DPI button in place. It should come out easily with a bit of prying.

    • This screw is unique, do not mix it with any other screw.

  15.

    • The side buttons are also held in with a snap fit. Pry at the locations indicated to loosen them. The buttons themselves might get caught on the casing, so push them in to remove them.

    • It is recommended to skip this step unless the buttons are being replaced, it does not get in the way of any other disassembly.

  17. Logitech Lift Teardown, Removing Switch Button Frame: crwdns2935265:017crwdnd2935265:01crwdnd2935265:02crwdne2935265:0 Logitech Lift Teardown, Removing Switch Button Frame: crwdns2935265:017crwdnd2935265:02crwdnd2935265:02crwdne2935265:0
    • The switch button frame is held in place with 3 screws. Remove them and it will lift right out.

    • The side buttons are mounted to the frame with 2 screws. Once they are removed, the boards can be gently pried away from the frame.

    • It is okay to bend the ribbon cable so that the boards are easier to remove. Try not to flex it more than necessary to prevent damage.

  20. Logitech Lift Teardown, Detaching Ribbon Cable from Switch Board: crwdns2935265:020crwdnd2935265:01crwdnd2935265:02crwdne2935265:0 Logitech Lift Teardown, Detaching Ribbon Cable from Switch Board: crwdns2935265:020crwdnd2935265:02crwdnd2935265:02crwdne2935265:0
    • The ribbon cable can be released from the switch board by pulling on the two white tabs on the connector. The ribbon cable should come out very easily, do not force it.

    • Take note of the orientation of the ribbon cable, or it will not reassemble in the same way.

  21. Logitech Lift Teardown, Close-Ups of Switch Board and Switch Dimensions: crwdns2935265:021crwdnd2935265:01crwdnd2935265:03crwdne2935265:0 Logitech Lift Teardown, Close-Ups of Switch Board and Switch Dimensions: crwdns2935265:021crwdnd2935265:02crwdnd2935265:03crwdne2935265:0 Logitech Lift Teardown, Close-Ups of Switch Board and Switch Dimensions: crwdns2935265:021crwdnd2935265:03crwdnd2935265:03crwdne2935265:0
    • Detailed view of the switch boards and switch dimensions.

    • The primary buttons are 6.2mm × 6.2mm, 7.3mm tall (circuit board to top of button), and have a pin pitch of 5mm.

    • The middle click and DPI button have the same dimensions, but are 5mm tall instead.

    • When purchasing new switches, they may be labeled as 6mm instead (6*6*7.3mm, for example). This is fine, the schematic in the product listing should show the correct dimensions.

    • There are red versions of these switches that seem to be identical and can be found on AliExpress, made by the same company "Kailh". The switches purchased for this mouse were titled "1/3/5Pcs Kailh Mute Button 6*6*7.3mm Square Silent Wireless Wired Mouse Micro switch Mouse Button Tact Switch" and sold by Kailh's official store.
