I've jumped my house batteries off my truck at home. I tried the emergency start and couldn't get it to work.

I am not sure how it works though if you have 6v batts though. 12v worked fine for me.

Now if you have multiple dead house batteries the chassis battery may not have enough juice to bring them up to where they'll start the gen. I have used it on ours when the house batteries were low but not completely dead.
