P.S. Suggest you erect the frame but leave it on it's 'knees' (with leg uprights broken, and bottom section splayed out). Then, roll the canvas over the frame (usually easier to start at the front, and ease the canvas over the stub canopy poles (short front poles) to make sure you don't damage the canvas.
When you're happy that the roof section is sitting squarely on the frame, lift the legs to their upright position (being careful not to snag the canvas in the frame joints as you lift), then square it all up, go inside and make sure the legs etc are all lined up nicely with the seams in the canvas, and tie it on (usually there are tapes, around the top bit).
With the door shut, start pegging the rear corners first, making sure the back is nice and straight and the canvas taut, then basically square up your front corners and do the same thing.
You'll soon get the hang of it. Frame tents are a doddle to pitch, once you now how.
It's worth getting some different coloured electricians tape, the first time you pitch, and mark adjoining pole pieces with colour-matched tape, so that next time it'll be obvious what goes where.
