I assume that your spindle is MT5. >From http://chaski.org/homemachinist/viewtopic.php?t=87907 "The collet adapter that adapts the spindle bore from a MT #5 taper to accept 5-C collets is available by part number. The part number is P4026001 Collet Adapter priced at $30.00 plus shipping and handling. The use of a drawtube or drawbar will still be necessary for the collet adapter to remain centered and stable in the spindle bore."
