Frequently Asked Questions - Mag Saris

How do I install the Mag trainer on my bike?

Remove the rear wheel of your bike and attach the trainer using the included quick release skewer (part g). For bikes with thru-axle, use a Saris thru-axle accessory available on Saris.com. Ensure the quick release lever is on the left side of the bike and pointing up or back.

How do I adjust the resistance on the Mag trainer?

Resistance is adjustable manually or via remote shifter (Mag+ models). Turn the yellow clutch knob until it engages, or turn the black knob an additional 2.5 turns to press the roller into the tire. For the remote shifter, push the lever up to increase resistance and down to decrease.

What are the important safety instructions?

Before any exercise, consult a doctor. If you experience chest pain, irregular heartbeat, shortness of breath, or discomfort, STOP immediately. Do not remove your feet from pedals, do not attempt high-speed training without warm-up, and keep children and pets away. Do not put hands or fingers into moving parts.

How do I maintain my Saris Mag trainer?

Remove the bike from the trainer when not in use. Regularly inspect parts. Clean the trainer with a dry cloth; do not use cleaner. Unplug the unit when not in use.

What is the warranty on the Mag trainer?

For private use: the frame is lifetime warranty against weld breakage, electronics 2 years, belt, pulley wheel, and freewheel 1 year. Wear parts (clamp knob, L-bolt, rollers, etc.) are not covered. Keep your proof of purchase.

Can I use the trainer with a thru-axle bike?

Yes, but you will need a Saris thru-axle accessory available on Saris.com. The trainer is designed to be used with the included skewer. For bolted or solid axle bikes, cone nuts may be needed.

How do I attach the remote shifter to the handlebar?

Adjust the nylon strap (d) around the handlebar, then lift the cam lever (b) to lock. If the lever does not hold the shifter, readjust the strap and re-engage the lever. The remote shifter allows resistance adjustment while riding.

What to do in case of a problem or defective part?

Contact Saris Cycling Group at 1-800-783-7257 to obtain a return authorization before any return. The warranty covers defects in materials or workmanship. Send the product prepaid to Saris or an authorized service center.

Does the Mag trainer require electrical power?

The base Mag model has no electrical power; it uses passive magnetic resistance. The Mag+ models with remote shifter may require a battery or be powered by the bike (not specified). Consult the manual for details.

USER MANUAL Mag Saris

EN Before starting any exercise program, consult with your physician or health professional. He or she can help establish the exercise frequency, intensity and time appropriate for your particular age and condition. If you have any pain or tightness in your chest, an irregular heartbeat, shortness of breath, feel faint, or have any discomfort while you exercise, STOP! Consult your physician before continuing. Failure to follow any of these safeguards may result in injury or serious health problems.

• Do not remove shoes from pedals while cycling.
• Do not attempt to ride the bike at high RPM's or in a standing position until you have practiced at lower RPM's.
• Do not place fingers or any other objects into moving parts of the trainer or bicycle.
• Keep children and pets away from your bike and the trainer while in use. Do not allow children to ride on your bike.
• Never turn pedal crank arms by hand. To avoid entanglement and possible injury, do not expose hands or arms to the drive mechanism.
• Do not dismount from your bike until both the pedals and the rear wheel are at a complete STOP.

EN Knobby tires will cause excessive noise and vibration. Use a slick tire to avoid this. Use of trainers will decrease the life of your rear tire. For longer life, use a harder compound tire (part #9735T).
