Hi and welcome .
I start at the back end with the first pole.
I dont peg the corners down fisrt though, as I find you have more flexibilty to get the pins inthe poles with it not pegged down.
put pins in pole, with it laying as flat to the ground as poss , is easier than trying to do it with the pole up in the air, as you are not lifting the canvas as well.
lay this first arch down , then do each pole the same, lying on them on top of the first.
Make sure the door is open to let air in before raising the tent, the air will help to lift it up easier.
peg down the corners at one end.
lift all poles up and walk the whole lot out, stretching it as you go.
loosely guy out the guylines at this end.

tent should now be standing.
peg down the corners this end. closing the doors first.
adjust guyline position if neccesary.
guy out the other end.
go inside and check the groundsheet is lying flat, move poles or corners to stretch it all flat.
peg through rings to hold poles in position.
peg the side guylines straight out in line with the poles .
the end poles guylines peg these slightly angled towards the back and front ones slightly towards front.
if you have steel pegs these are for the pegging down loops at the base of the tent, and through the rings at bottom of poles.
Plastic ones are for the guylines.
pegs should be angled at 45degrees pointing in towards tent, not straight down.
