Jumpstart from auxiliary battery

I had to call roadside assistance to jump start my 2008 Roadtrek 170 today. I understand there isa way to jump start from the auxiliary battery from the isolator in the engine compartment using a pair of jumper cables. Does anyone know where to clamp the cables to do those? I've attached a picture of my isolator.

Thanks!

    I have a different unit- different isolator scheme.

    but most coach batteries are held in place with wingnuts and wingnuts on the battery posts...so minutes to remove ( if you have a slidey under) and carry the battery to the front of the van.

    connect positive to positive. connect the negative to the chassis ( not the battery).
