**Problem Statement:**

Find the couple moment \( M \) if the resultant force of the loading system (two forces of 400 N and 320 N and one moment of \( M \) N·m) passes through point O.

**Diagram Description:**

The diagram illustrates a system with a lever and various forces applied:
- A horizontal rod is shown with a reference point \( O \).
- A couple moment \( M \) is applied at the left end of the rod, directed counterclockwise.
- Two external forces are applied on the system:
  - A force of 400 N is applied perpendicular to the rod at a 30° angle.
  - Another force of 320 N is applied at the top, creating a 60° angle with the horizontal.
- The rod is divided into sections with given lengths:
  - From left to right, the sections measure 160 mm, 150 mm, and another 150 mm from point \( O \).
- Vertical and horizontal distance markers and angles are indicated for precise mechanical analysis. 

This setup seeks to find the moment \( M \) needed for equilibrium, ensuring the overall resultant force acts through point \( O \).
