Looks like a Morse Taper #2 (MT2) interface. Simply slide the chuck or bit into the headstock (what you call the neck) with some force - hand pressure is all you need. There might be a drawbar that you tighten from teh top of the headstock that will pull the chuck onto the taper. Do not oil the taper, else it will slip.

Thanks,yes is working for the chuck.But for the smaller bits is there any extension or other interface?
 
HI well for the reamer you will need a MT1 to a MT2 sleeve and for the end mill you will need ether a Colet chuck or a set of MT2 Colet's to fit in the head of the mill if you can find a makers name on the mill google the name and you shod find out more on the mill
