Is the basket floating? If yes, pump out water. See Long Drain.
If not, determine the cause of friction. It is fairly common for a small wash item like a sock to get stuck under the Cabrio's inner wash tub and keep it from reengaging the washers drive hub. The Cabrio washer's inner tub should slide easily up and down on the drive shaft. It is also common for this shaft to rust and cause drag. Removing the inner drum for a good shaft cleaning often will fix the washer with no replacement parts.
