Hibbeler said in Engineering Mechanics Statics page 167 (14^th Edition):

"Notice that F_R is independent of the location of point O since it's simply a summation of the forces"

What I want to ask, It's known that a couple moment is a free vector and it can be moved arbitrary to any point on the body but how can I insist the same concept for Resultant Force, although I can't assure that point O is on the line of the action of F_R

In different words, how can I move F_R freely while not the Principle of Transmissibility nor free vector is applied to it.

?V.I. Arnold Mathematical Methods of Classical Mechanics Second Edition Page 50? Determine the major semi-axis of the ellipse which the center of the earth describes around the common center of mass of the earth and the moon. Where is this center of mass, inside the earth or outside? (The mass of the moon is 1/81 times the mass of the earth.) NOT JUST 'INSIDE' OR 'OUTSIDE', with specific solution.
