Never thought about the levers and their "batteries" something else to learn about!
Same here on the generator starting.
I know I don't have an alternator, done looked...

Our House (3) batteries are for the house only, which include a 12vdc source for the Generator (starter), if i disconnect my house batteries, i can not start our generator (unless i override it w/ the "emergency get start" switch).
I'll have to confirm that our generator (even has an) alternator & if it charges the house batteries directly...im gonna bet it doesn't (since this would take another isolation relay or dc transfer switch).
rather the ac voltage supplied by the running generator, activates the Converter/Charger which charges the House batteries.
Our Generator does NOT charge the engine chassis batteries.
