I have Wright tool #4478 1/2" clicker torque wrench. Couldn't find a close up picture anywhere, but on the scale it goes down to 30 and then basically stops. Am I supposed to 'guess' where zero is?

I think it's a 30-250 range. If you keep turning the handle left, it goes a long ways until stopping.

The torque wrench does not go below 30 ft-lbf. If you turn it below that, you can potentially ruin it's accuracy.

when storing, set it to lowest number, not below lowest number.

Some wrenches have stopper to prevent accidental disassemble, some don't.
