You need to bind the skeleton to the object, have a look in the help files on how to go about it as it has a few tutorials in there

Have a look in mayas help files (Press F1 then do a search) if not theres loads of skin binding tutorials on the net, google it and you should get some good tutorails on the net (try rigging or skinning a skeleton in maya) Should get you going
