which collets for 9A?

[SE18]

Where's the drawbar? Is that a separate item and does it screw inside the chuck's MT3? I was under the impression that you just stick the MT3 into the spindle and it's good to go. A drawbar would allay my fear of it spinning though if there's a hidden inside threading to the chuck

This is a view of a 9A with the 3C collet setup:



You can see the drawbar on the left side of the headstock. Sorry, I don't have any other pictures of the individual pieces...

I know that the 3C uses a drawbar setup, but I was under the impression that an ER collet chuck is just supposed to be screwed on to the headstock. That's why I was surprised that in the link I provided, there's no provision for screwing it to the HS, just a 3MT sticking out from it. By it screwing on the headstock, it allows stock up to the diameter of the spindle to be inserted. That's supposedly the main advantage over a drawbar, which limits stock to .5"
