Whenever this happens you need to make sure the multitask handle base is not worn out before replacing your lift/lower pot, the detent worns out causing the issue. Generally I replace the base and the pot since I'm already in it.
Ps: excessive play on multitask handle is an indicator of a worn out base.

Sounds like the lift pot needs to be calibrated. you can also check the phillips screws on the inside of the yellow half-sphere shaped cover. they come loose and cause unwanted play in the handle that effects neutral position for lift and travel
