1. Introduction 

The PriorLux POL upright compound polarised light microscope is a high quality instrument 

equipped with high resolution, chromatically corrected strain-free optics for excellent image 

quality in polarised light applications. The robust construction and hard wearing materials 

ensure long lasting and trouble free operation. The instrument can be used with a number of 

supplied accessories including ¼  and   compensation plates, quartz wedge, attachable 

mechanical XY stage and eyepiece graticule with stage micrometer. 

 

For documentation the instrument is available with a trinocular head which permits mounting 

of a video or digital camera system. 

 

2. Unpacking 

The PriorLux POL is shipped in protective bags within a pre-formed container. Each 

component should be carefully unpacked and checked, cutting rather than tearing the plastic 

bags. The head (binocular or trinocular) should be fitted to the dovetail on top of the stand 

and locked in place with the head locking screw. The eyepieces then just drop into the 

eyepiece tubes at the front of the head, these should be pushed in as far as they will go. 

 

Remove each objective lens from its protective “pot” and screw into the free positions on the 

nosepiece. Move the stage and the condenser carrier to the highest position and insert the 

condenser from underneath with the diaphragm control facing to the front. This is locked in 

position with the clamping screw, which is fitted from the side.
