If you need to refine the structure with phenix.refine then you need to make an edit file to specify that the mannose C1 is linked to the ser OG by a covalent bond.
I am not sure if this is what was meant, but you don't need to define bonds explicitly in phenix. Phenix.refine has the same (or a forked version, I am not sure) monomer library as refmac's, and it contains the MAN-SER and MAN-THR linkages, which includes bond distance and angle restraints, but no torsion angles (see below). You can invoke a MAN-SER or MAN-THR linkage from the phenix.refine GUI, or add a parameter file to define it. You shouldn't need to specify distances and angles. I am guessing the not-fully mature linkage-detection function in phenix, which works well for N-linked sugars, might also work for O-linked, but Nigel Moriarty from the PHENIX team would know (looking forward to this being automatic).

By the way, this is how MAN-SER looks in the latest phenix monomer library:
