Put a rag under fuel tap/rubber pipe
Using pliers prise apart the clip holding rubber pipe in place then slide down a bit
Carefully remove rubber pipe from tank (a flat blade screwdriver can help move it at the tank end)
Rubber pipe will still have fuel in it so try and empty it into the rag

Carefully lift off tank then gently rest it somewhere safe, where it won't get kicked, or fall.
