When you want to spin dry the mop the Red pedal goes to the floor as if something is broken.
Not to worry. No parts are damaged. The One Way bearing / clutch has stuck, from water or moisture and just needs a drop or two of oil. Any oil you have will do just to free up the one way clutch / bearing and lubricate so it does not happen again for a while.

I had the same problem but fixed it slightly different. I turned the empty bucket upside down, removed the four pz2 screws. Lifted out gearing in one piece. Removed rust/debris from two month old bucket stainless steel shaft and sprayed with water dispersant liquid. Reassembled. May sound complicated but very easy and thorough job. Only about 10 minutes, screwdriver and lubricant spray.
Hi Jim Thanks for your idea. Next time I will go a bit deeper into it. My bucket was already full and ready to go. The few drops of oil got it going straight away.
Sometimes there is too much rust into the gearing.
I replace it with “Octagonal One Way Needle Roller Bearing HF081412 8*14*12mm Fit for EasyMop” found on EBAY (10=$8.90 !)
Like a new ! I takes 10’ !
Thanks for the heads up , geek5537. Will take note of the part number. Stay safe.
Where I can buy new pedal? Mine is broken.
