Zerostat near cartridge?


Are there any concerns with discharging a zerostat near the cartridge, that is, on a record that is sitting on the platter? Are there any possible negative impacts to be cartridge nearby?  This is not discussed in the instructions, so one would assume no problem, any evidence to the contrary?

Gun is around 7:30-8:00 pointing inline with grooves away from cart at 45 degrees.  I give the gun 2-3 slow cycles with record spinning.  
And the Furtech is on sale right now at one of the online retailers whose emails I receive. Music Direct? The Cable Company? Audio Advisor? I already deleted the email or I would look for it.
On sale everywhere but still 3x the sale price of the gun.  Is it that much better?
The gun is a big joke!!Destat is 100% effective gun maybe 20% you get what you pay for!!
