I put the negative connector of my charger on one of the threaded studs on the side of the shock tower, after the positive connector is fixed on the positive terminal of the battery.

The idea of putting the negative connection well away from the battery is because as the negative terminal is connected after the positive connection so there could be a spark. That spark would then be well away from any gasses that may be lingering near the battery.

So when disconnecting its opposite, negative connection removed first, then the positive connection.
