After a timeof use it does not give you the start of zero, so you will have restart it to zero.
Because the object might add to the weight
If the weights are an intact set then one can weigh, with considerable precision, any amount by placing the object to be weighed on one pan of the balance scales and then placing one or more weights on the other side, in increasing magnitudes until the pans balance. It may be necessary to add one or more weights to the side containing the object being weighed to achieve stability. Then by subtracting the weights on that side from the weights on the other, one can calculate the weight of the object. When weighing liquids or large quantities of loose material, remember to weigh the empty container first and to subtract that value at the end of th weighing, to get the weight of what is contained.
That would introduce additional errors - i.e., in addition to the errors you have if you DO zero the balance.
to measure the weight of an object, hang the object on the hook of the balance, lift up the balance and take the reading. OR to measure the force needed to pull an object, attach an object to the hook of the balance, pull the balance and take the reading when the object moves.
A balance is used by weighing and object by another.

a weigh boat is an object that is used to protect your balance from any object you want to weigh
The weight is the mass multiplied by the acceleration of gravity. When weighing an object by a balance the acceleration of gravity is on both sides of weighing and hence canceling its effect and hence you get the object mass (not the weight)..
The device used for comparing the mass of an object to a known mass is a double pan balance, or a balance scale. This is a type of weighing scale where you put weights on one pan and the substance you are weighing on the other.

it's help you to get actual weight of an object
You compare its mass with something of known mass. In everyday earthbound conditions, this would mean weighing it on a set of weighing scales or on a spring balance.
A balance has two pans, you put measured weights in one and the item you are weighing in the other and when the balance is level you sum the known weights to get the unknown's weight. A scale is an instrument with a readout (digital or analog) from which you read the weight of an object places on (in) the weighing surface/dish.

Obtain an appropriate weighing device. Make sure the device is calibrated properly. Perform the weighing by placing the object on top of the weighing device.
