Abstract: A system for securing a fuel tank to a mobile machine includes a mounting frame connectable to the mobile machine and having a substantially rigid portion configured to support the fuel tank, and a mounting strap connected to the mounting frame and configured to secure the fuel tank to the mounting frame by extending around at least a portion of an outer surface of the fuel tank. The system also includes a first connection material connected to at least one of the mounting frame and the mounting strap, and a second connection material configured to mesh with the first connection material thereby forming a removable hook-and-loop connection therewith. The second connection material is connectable to the outer surface of the fuel tank such that when the first connection material is meshed with the second material the removable connection therebetween substantially prohibits rotation of the fuel tank.
