I’ve discovered three possible issues with my L555 that I’m hoping will reduce the moisture problem. The side panels need to be very well sealed. I found water could enter mine through the chain adjuster (one appears to be incorrect for my model, so this is unlikely to be your problem). Check...

Found them. On the front cab columns, inside the cab. They look like bottle tops inside holes in the columns. The cap is push-fit and the plastic breather screws into the frame. I used a 1-1/4” AF socket to remove breathers. On my machine, they were covered in dirty grease which falls down...
