Mahle ShopPRO CML-9 Mobile Column Lift Wireless 9.5 Ton, Single/Sets
Fleet and commercial shops servicing standard-wheelbase trucks don't need to pay for wide-base stability they won't use. The Mahle CML-9 is built for that: a 19,000 lb per-column (9.5-ton) wireless mobile column lift with a standard-base footprint, scalable from a single column up to a full 8-column, 152,000 lb set.
The CML-9 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 fleet's typical vehicle weight and wheel diameter before choosing between a single column and a multi-column set.
Who the CML-9 Is Built For
- The commercial shop servicing standard-wheelbase trucks and fleet vehicles that doesn't need the CML-9W's wide-base footprint, and wants the same 9.5-ton column capacity at a lower entry price
- The shop starting with a single CML-9 column and planning to scale to a set of 4, 6, or 8 as their heavy-vehicle service volume grows
- The shop replacing an aging cabled column-lift system and wanting to eliminate floor cabling and setup delays with wireless synchronization
- The buyer comparing this against the CML-9W and confirming their typical wheelbases don't require the wider base before choosing the standard-base version
- The fleet operation that wants to standardize training across a growing column count, starting small and adding matching columns over time
What the CML-9 Is NOT Built For
- ❌ Shops with genuinely wide-wheelbase vehicles needing extra footprint stability — the CML-9W wide-base variant is built for that
- ❌ Light-duty passenger vehicle shops — mobile columns at this capacity are built for trucks and commercial fleet work
- ❌ Shops needing a fixed, always-in-place lift — mobile columns require floor space to reposition and store when not lifting
What Makes the CML-9 Different
Wireless, Battery-Powered Operation
Each column runs on 24VDC battery power with no cables between columns — faster setup and a safer floor with nothing to trip over.
Synchronized Multi-Column Lifting
Columns communicate wirelessly to lift in sync, scaling from a single column up to a full 8-column set as your shop's needs grow.
19,000 lb Capacity Per Column
At 9.5 tons per column, a set of 4 handles up to 76,000 lbs total — sized for heavy trucks and commercial fleet vehicles.
Standard-Base Footprint
A standard-base design fits typical commercial wheelbases without the extra footprint of the wide-base CML-9W, at a lower price.
Scalable Set Configurations
Available as a single column or in sets of 4, 6, or 8 — buy exactly the capacity your shop needs today, and add columns later.
- ✅ Fleet and commercial shops servicing standard-wheelbase trucks needing scalable column-lift capacity

- ✅ Shops wanting cable-free, wireless operation without paying for wide-base stability they don't need
- ❌ Shops with genuinely wide-wheelbase vehicles needing extra footprint stability — the CML-9W wide-base variant is built for that
- ❌ Light-duty passenger vehicle shops — mobile columns at this capacity are built for trucks and commercial fleet work
- ❌ Shops needing a fixed, always-in-place lift — mobile columns require floor space to reposition and store when not lifting
CML-9 vs. Mahle CML-9W (wide base, 9.5 ton) — Which Is Right for Your Shop?
| Decision Point | CML-9 | Mahle CML-9W (wide base, 9.5 ton) |
|---|---|---|
| Capacity per column | 19,000 lbs | 19,000 lbs |
| Base configuration | Standard base | Wide base |
| Min/Max wheel diameter | 5" – 24.5" | 4" – no max |
| Weight | 1,510 lbs | 1,575 lbs |
| Price (single) | $14,537.00 | $16,601.00 |
Choose the standard-base CML-9 at the same 9.5-ton capacity for a lower price if your wheelbases don't require a wider footprint. Choose the CML-9W when your vehicle mix genuinely needs the wide-base stability margin. Both stay inside Alamo’s catalog — call (844) 480-6059.

- 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.
