TM to increment old backup with new mac

I made a big backup with Time Machine for a few weeks and having a new mac, i would like Time Machine to continue incrementally making backups on that old one. (I have parts of that old backup that i don't want to erase.)
I have read somewhere that TM uses the MAC address to ID the computer and that there might be privileges and permissions involved - but i have gotten no further. is there a solution?

best regards,
tobias
