It's not usual to fit them to the saddle but if you want to put it in the tailstock you need an arbor with MT2 one end and a suitable tapered end on the other to fit the chuck. Hopefully it will have a B or JT number on it which indicates what the taper is.

Look at the details of the chuck on your invoice, or on the RG Tools website. It should mention the fitting, maybe JT–, or B–, if it is not already marked on the chuck. The tailstock size is definitely MT2 (Morse Taper 2).

If it is RDG Tools you bought the chuck from, then the three most likely chucks, judging from your photo are as follows:

1-10MM CHUCK = B12 fitting. Order Drill arbor MT2 X B12 with tang

1-13MM CHUCK= B16 fitting. Order Drill arbor MT2 X B16 with tang

0.5-16MM CHUCK= B18 fitting. Order Drill arbor MT2 X B18 with tang
