Not only "can" - it should be lubricated and cleaned inside at least every other year.

Remove the top panel and the front panel.

Remove the belt (before you remove it, draw a picture how it goes on the motor pulley) and the drum.

Check all drum support rollers. Replace them if worn out. Lubricate if not.

- The part number for the set of two rollers AP3098345

- Here are the break down diagrams for the Whirlpool dryer Model LVE5700W0
