Paracity portable burr grinder only grinds coarse. Did I break it?

I've had this rechargeable burr grinder for close to a year now. It took me a few weeks to figure out how to get the grind setting where I wanted it because there's only a little plastic wing nut and at the finest setting it was still perkalator-coarse. I have a pour over, so I wanted it finer than that. I figured out I could tighten the nut a little further with a wrench, and I've gotten the good stuff ever since.

My mom has been staying with me this past week so I've been putting in more beans to grind than I usually do, and it's back to being coarse again. I tried to see about using a wrench to tighten it, but it's not working. I'm worried I may have pushed this cheap little grinder beyond its limits and it will never be fine again.

Does anyone know anything about this brand of burr grinder? Should I just give it up and get something new? These coarse grounds make my coffee so weak and bitter. I can't live like this!
