Doug is right
It uses a winding in the generator head to act like a starter, spin the generator armature shaft to slow crank the engine for starting
Has points and ignition coil, no CDI,
Thermal choke, and battery charging to keep the generator start battery charged,
Many of these were wired to the chassis battery when installed, not the RV house batteries,
Since they supplied a charge to keep the battery up, they would charge the engine/chassis battery,
And the RV converter would charge the house batteries

All the above comments seems reasonable. No generator guru but when you press the starter switch the generator essentially bi-passes the hi tech safety stuff and the generator fires up. When you release the button then all the electronic safety stuff engages. Loose wiring and low oil are the two inexpensive solutions.
