grasp of the German language: Is that MB (or Sachs) official way of stating "this side up" . . . or . . . "don't not invert" . . . . or . . ."don't ship upside down" . . . or . . . whatever??
And does eveybody appreciate "OBEN" as meaning "
Transportation and Storage - Temperature-controlled Viscous Fan Couplings MUST be transported upright".
And what does "OBEN" have to do with "upright". To me, 'upright' means in the plane that it operates, ie vertically?? So where is that on the box?
BTW, Phil, let's not discount the two vfcs that I tested: so in total, FIVE (5) vfcs that didn't work out of FIVE (5). Probably a conspiracy?
