Abstract

A cassette-type fuel tank can be removably mounted on a working machine equipped with an internal combustion engine. The fuel tank has an opening to which different closing caps can be selectively and removably attached. One cap is for use in transporting the fuel tank separate from the working machine, and another is for use when the fuel tank is attached to the working machine. The working machine has a tank-mounting means for removably holding the fuel tank below the internal combustion engine.
