Lifting apparatus (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hoist

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">lifting apparatus</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for hoist that I've seen before include "Raise aloft" , "Lift up; device for this" , "I shot (anag)" , "Raise with ropes" , "Raise or haul up, say flag" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
