AFAIK never used in canon.
Presumably this refers to physical motion, but without any examples we can't be certain. Use {chu'} "engage, activate (a device)" for "raising" shields. I use {Qorgh} "take care of, care for" for "raise children, livestock, etc."
Related verbs:
Sal ascend (v)
toS climb (v)
ghIr descend (v)
chagh drop (v)
pum fall (v)
ghuS lower (spear) to horizontal to attack (v)
