External Load Limit AS355F1

Hello, I have a quick question for somebody who might have access to a Flight Manual for the AS355 F1. Is there an amended MAUW to include external loads, up from 2400kg, as there is for the F2? I have an idea that the load limit is probably the same as for the F2 (RFMS 10.6) ie 1134kg, but is the overall MAUW increased. I have the F2 Flight Manual but not the F1 version!

If anybody has the answer if they could send me a copy of the relevant page from the RFMS I would be very grateful. Thanks.

Brilliant, thank you both so much for your help here, I was hoping that this would be the case but as ever until you see an official text, hearsay can be a very dangerous friend!! Happy Easter
