A picture would help. Is the flywheel removable? You'll almost certainly need to remove the shaft from the tuner to work on it safely. That probably means re-stringing the cord, so be sure you're ready for that. Straightening the shaft will probably require a couple wood blocks and a vise or large hammer. Avoid the urge to just hold and bend it directly with metal tools like pliers or vise-grips.
