Default battery tender

I have a 1980 corvette and i have a die hard battery tender. Can I just hook up the positive end CLAMP of the tender to THE positive BATTERY CLAMP ON THE BATTERY and the negative END CLAMP to the negative BATTERY CLAMP terminal ON BATTERY .I have the battery in the car. I also have a ring adapter kit and a lighter fuse adapter. I prefer just to put positive on positive and negative on negative and just leave the battery in car until summer. I just dont wannt to blow up my house and garage.

That is how I have mine and I just leave it on all Winter. I have a stock 81. Check the water level in the battery every so often.
