If you set your tank (drum or ?) on a raised platform so the bottom of that storage reservoir is above the top of the mower's tank then a tube to the bottom of your reservoir will gravity flow fuel to your mower and you don't need a pump. If you are concerned you may not know how to easily and conveniently start the siphon action you can get a small squeeze ball type pump made to start a siphon. There are other ways to do it without a pump too. A flex hose of 3/8 or larger ID should do fine. I'd probably go for 1/2 inch. No electricity, no sparks, no pump, few worries.
You can fill the storage reservoir from jugs.
