It is suppost to slide on out but like you say it is rusty. If you can't get it out underneath you can remove the pedal shaft & take the whole assembly out. Use a 3/4 in socket on a long extension & remove the nut. Put a block of wood between the arm & the floor board. With a large drift & big hammer knock the pedal out of the arm. Then you can work on it on the bench or use a press.
