Mansfield stormed into a four-goal lead inside 32 minutes to set up a first win of the season over unbeaten Stockport. John McAliskey volleyed Mansfield ahead, and defender Martin McIntosh's curling free-kick doubled their lead.
Jake Buxton scored from close-range and after Michael Boulding's penalty was saved by Conrad Logan, John Mullins rammed home a second spot-kick.
Adam Proudlock struck twice to half the deficit before half time, but Mansfield held on after Lee Bell's dismissal.
