Abstract
A hair cutter of a shaving device has a support with a skin contacting surface, and a retainer releasably couplable to the support by a coupler to retain an external cutter in an operational/assembled condition of the hair cutter. A retained element of the external cutter is retained between a first retaining member of the retainer and a second retaining member of the support where, in response to manually turning the retainer relative to the support, the shaving surface protrudes relative to the skin contacting surface in the axial direction over an exposure distance. The coupler has a first guide on the support and a second guide on the retainer. The first and second guides mutually engage resulting from manually turning the retainer relative to the support when the retainer is in any angular position between first and second angular positions about the axis of rotation relative to the support.
