It's not especially easy, but here is how I do it:
Lift one corner, leaving the rest of the weight on the diagonally
opposite corner, and walk backward while helping the lower sliding
thingy rise to it's needed position. When you go as far as you can
that way, go around the tent to each corner, pulling back and lifting
the sliding thingies until you get one to latch. After you get one
latched, the rest should be easy. Please excuse the technical jargon.
We always set up on pavement, so staking is not an option.
