Take 1 or 2 links out of the chain?
So that there is less chain for the tensioner to wrap around?
B screw adjustment.
Edit. No derailleur so just reduce tension
If there’s no b limit adj, then link out of chain or smaller cog
If you just recently got this then check that there’s nothing else in the box that might go over the b pin to push it out.
How many teeth does your sprocket have? Specs say this tensioner has a max of 14.
The only reliable way I can think of is a custom part that will go in place of/over the “limiting pin” of the tensioner, which will offset the tensioner angle in relation to the frame/hanger. maybe it can be 3d printed. Maybe you could find a bolt with matching thread, like a hex socket head bolt and go from there. Could be a fun little project if you like DIY
I’d look into an extender for the hanger. The hanger looks standard, maybe add wolftooth extender or similar
