Mahle ShopPRO CML-7 Mobile Column Lift Wireless 7 Ton, Single/Sets
Not every shop needs 9.5-ton-per-column lifting capacity, and paying for tonnage you'll never use doesn't make sense at the entry tier. The Mahle CML-7 is built for that: a 14,000 lb per-column (7-ton) wireless mobile column lift, scalable from a single column up to a full 8-column, 112,000 lb set, at the lowest price point in Mahle's mobile column lineup.
The CML-7 runs wirelessly on 24VDC battery power — no cables between columns — and charges from standard 70-130 VAC service. Call Alamo at (844) 480-6059 to confirm your typical vehicle weight before choosing between the CML-7, CML-9, and CML-9W tiers.
Who the CML-7 Is Built For
- The shop entering mobile column lifting for the first time and wanting a lower per-column price point before committing to the 9.5-ton CML-9 or CML-9W tier
- The shop whose typical vehicle mix tops out under 14,000 lbs per corner and doesn't need to pay for the higher-tonnage columns above
- The mobile/field-service operation that needs genuinely portable lifting capability across multiple job sites, not a fixed-bay installation
- The shop starting with a single CML-7 column to test the workflow before scaling to a set of 4, 6, or 8 as volume justifies it
- The buyer who compared this against the CML-9 and CML-9W and confirmed 7-ton-per-column capacity genuinely covers their vehicle mix before choosing the lower-tier price
What the CML-7 Is NOT Built For
- ❌ Shops regularly lifting vehicles over 14,000 lbs per corner — step up to the CML-9 or CML-9W for that capacity
- ❌ Shops needing the widest wheel-diameter coverage — the CML-7 shares the CML-9's 5"-24.5" range, not the CML-9W's no-max spec
- ❌ Shops needing a fixed, always-in-place lift — mobile columns require floor space to reposition and store when not lifting
What Makes the CML-7 Different
7-Ton Capacity Per Column
A scalable lifting system for commercial vehicles at the entry tier of Mahle's mobile column lineup — real capacity without paying for tonnage you don't need.
Wireless Operation
Eliminates cables between columns for faster setup and a safer, clutter-free workspace.
Modular System Design
Expandable from a single column up to a full 8-column system as your shop's lifting needs grow.
Synchronized Lifting
Columns communicate wirelessly to ensure even, controlled lifting across the full set.
Portable & Mobile
Ideal for flexible shop layouts and field service work, not just a fixed bay.
Battery-Powered, User-Friendly Controls
Operates without external power cords, with a simple interface for efficient day-to-day operation.
- ✅ Shops entering mobile column lifting at a lower price point per column
- ✅ Shops with lighter-duty commercial and fleet vehicles under 14,000 lbs per corner
- ✅ Shops needing scalable field-service or flexible-layout lifting capability
- ❌ Shops regularly lifting vehicles over 14,000 lbs per corner — step up to the CML-9 or CML-9W for that capacity
- ❌ Shops needing the widest wheel-diameter coverage — the CML-7 shares the CML-9's 5"-24.5" range, not the CML-9W's no-max spec
- ❌ Shops needing a fixed, always-in-place lift — mobile columns require floor space to reposition and store when not lifting

⚠️ Installation Requirements
- Floor space: Mobile columns reposition around the vehicle rather than bolting to a fixed footprint — confirm clear floor space for the full column set plus the vehicle's length.
- Charging: Confirm a 70-130 VAC @ 50-60 Hz circuit is available near the storage/charging location.
- Wheel diameter compatibility: Confirm your fleet's wheel diameters fall within 5" / 24.5" (127mm / 622mm).
- Setup help: Call (844) 480-6059 with any setup or first-use questions.
