If you look at the generator unit, on the left side bottom corner there should be a ground lead and the hot lead will be attached to a solenoid just inside the frame.

As you're standing in front of the generator looking at it, the muffler is on the right and the battery cable/remote control wiring entrance is on the left end of the generator (the opposite end from the muffler).
OOPS: Looks like Chuckster57 and I were typing at the same time...

That loom of wires is for the remote start. What your looking for is a red and black BATTERY cable. They are going to be large diameter and have a crimped eye on the end. If your standing at the gen and need help, PM me with your phone # and I can call you.
