When I had to dismember the grinder I "fixed" the issue we had with it being hard up against the stop by simply attaching the collar to alternative holes in the burr carrier. It was an easy fix.
But yours does indeed look like it is multiple full turns of the carrier out! The pitch of the thread is very fine, so even 2 turns out is possible (although it is hard to make out the grind size accurately from a picture).
Very nicely made grinders, IMHO. Kind of brick outhouse engineering which I like... particularly when random people use it!
