On my new to me Hole Wizard 4'-11" I have run the arm all the way to the top until the pin stop engaged. Now I can't get it to come back down.Anyone have any idea why?

Did you try resetting the overload relays and check the fuses after you hit the stop? I have the same machine and every time I turn off the phase converter/transformer, I have to reset the relays to get it to turn back on.

I don't think it is the contacts because the screw that I can see turns when I activate the handle. I did reset them anyway though. I'm not completely sure how the elevation mechanism works but it has some kind of motor brushes inside the column at the top that I can see when I pull of the cover. I assumed that the screw that I can see raised and lowered the arm but obviously that is not the case. Whatever raises and lowers the arm is inside the column and/or the case around the column. It's been almost 40 years since I messed with one of these and I wasn't really paying attention back then.
