Thanks!
Thank you for purchasing a Mark-10 Series ES Force Measurement Test Stand. We are confident that you will get many years
of service from this product.
Series ES test stands can be used in any number of compression and tension testing applications. Both models ES10 and
ES20 are designed for testing up to 100 lb (500 N). To maintain
smooth mechanical functioning of your test stand, avoid repetitive overloads and shock loads.
We hope that this User’s Guide will provide a comprehensive
explanation of the test stands’ operation and sufficient detail on
their specifications. However, if you have any other questions or
concerns our engineering and technical support teams will be
eager to help you.
Thank you again for your purchase and happy testing!

OPERATION
The test stand can be mounted to a work bench using the clearance holes in the base – see drawing for hole location. The included mounting hole drill template can be used to locate holes
in work area.
All Mark-10 force gauges (except the Series CG) can be
mounted directly to the stand without adapters. Mount the gauge
using the thumb screws provided.
The loading lever on the ES10
can be adjusted to allow for ease
of operation. Reposition the lever
using one of the three tapped
holes located in the hub – refer to
the dimensional drawing on the
next page.
If the optional dial Indicator kit
(ES001) is purchased separately,
it can be easily installed using the
hardware provided.
