Which is the engine starting battery?

I am ready to install LSL's Trik-L-Start, but I don't know which cable on the isolator goes to the engine starting battery and I might have to get dirty if I have to pull a cable off the battery.  :D
Maybe someone that has already done this can help?

Follow each cable and one of them goes straight down to the engine battery just below and behind the tag axle on drivers side.

Thanks Michelle, but for some reason I can't open the photos. I click on it and it claims to be loading and the little wheel just goes 'round & 'round.

I am getting the same thing. I thought it was my connection.
