Elevator (4)
I believe the answer is:
lift
'elevator' is the definition.
(I know that elevator can be written as lift)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for lift that I've seen before include "Raise; elevator" , "Means of access to different floors" , "Raise the vertical conveyor" , "It's an elevator in USA" , "Steal (colloq.); elevator" .)
