No gearing/whatsoever that reversed its movement compared to the movement of the flap.

Its also written in the text just above the abb 60:

"Die Anzeigestange (60c) durch die Tragfläche führen und an den beiden Winkeln (60d) der Kühlerklappen (60a) anlenken."
"Push the indicator Rod (60c) through the airfoil and connect it with the brackets (60d) to the cowl flaps (60a)"


Also, "versenkter stab: klappe auf" on page 3 isn't badly chosen words. It says "open water cooler if needed (with crank located to the right of the seat); indicator on top of airfoil (sunken rod: flap open)". No german uses the word "Auf" for the meaning of up if the context is something you can open or close. Especially if "up" isnt "open".
!!! OKAY, CONVINCED !!!!

bf109 radiator indicator rods are wrong (reversed)
