Does it look like the one pictured at the link?

I did come across that link but it's not similar. This is the same one as I have:

My guesses are as follows. A selenium cell so no battery. Set film asa/din on dial & leave it there for each film being used. Appears to have two ranges to use according to the light. They will be selected by the flap at the front - note the slot in it - use with the flap closed in bright light & open when it's dimmer. I guess that you take the aperture reading from the needle scale and transfer it to the aperture scale on the knurled disc, lining it up with either 'open' or 'closed' according to how you've set the flap. Then choose a lined-up pair of aperture / shutter settings ...

Prinz was a brand name used by Dixons. All but a very few Prinz products were rebadged versions of (generally) Japanese products. You might find something here... http://www.jollinger.com/photo/meters/index.html

James Ollinger has a Sekonic L VI Leader listed but can't see manual. Butkus has one and it looks very similar down to having f numbers on meter.

Hi Fuju. I've just acquired one of these meters and I was wondering if you had any joy sourcing a manual for it. I think I have got a basic understanding of it but I would like a bit more.
Cheers.
Cheers.

Oh right. I think I might be flogging a dead horse then. Cheers Gramps.
