This is a duplicate of a previously asked question on FIXYA from 2012, where an exact set of instructions could not be found, but two proposed answers were given.
For a similar but not the same tent, the scanned document still exists online:

Quoting from FIXYA question from 2012

Jim,
these are the instructions I devised as I had no instructions either...
Great Outdoors Executive 320 tent
Two rooms plus a fully enclosable veranda.
(4.9m long x 4.3m wide x 2.4m high)
Main Tent Assembly :
Lay the tent out on the ground (making allowance for the slope of the ground, prevailing wind, general access, etc).
Peg down the main corners and centres of each wall, keeping the tent square and evenly tensioned. Peg down remaining loops.
Assemble two sets of side support poles. These have been numbered (from the front, looking towards the tent (ie, facing the veranda)) :
Left-hand side : L1, L2, L3, L4 & L5 (corresponding to poles 1, 24, 3, 4 & 1).
Add front & rear supports LF1 & LF2 and LB1 & LB2 (ie, 2 sets of poles 5 & 9).
Right-hand side : R1, R2, R3, R4 & R5 (corresponding to poles 1, 24, 3, 4 & 1).
Add front & rear supports RF1 & RF2 and RB1 & RB2 (ie, 2 sets of poles 5 & 9).
Place poles in the loops along the sides ensuring that the 4 brown loops (at each end of the sides) are looped behind the projecting studs (this ensures the sides don't slide into the centres.
Lift & tension one side, then the other.
Assemble the centre poles (numbered C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6 & C7 (corresponding to poles 12, 13, 8A, 24, 3, 4 & 8)).
Slide the centre poles through the centre of the tent. Use poles 14A & 15 to hold up the rear of the tent, poles 14A & A in the centre, & two further sets of 14A & 15, one set at the front of the tent & one set for the veranda. Tension by expanding the poles.
Assemble poles A, BE, C2, BE & A through the centre of the tent, clip onto ridge poles & tension. (Note : poles A should be inserted from the outside, through the elasticised holes before being inserted into poles BE).
Attach a guy rope to the rear of the tent (top of centre pole 15) & tension.
Veranda Assembly :
Assemble 4 sets of poles (10 & 30) & place in corners & centres of the veranda. Attach guy ropes & tension. Attach veranda walls (using Velcro strips).
Porch Assembly :
Select which side is to be an entrance. Unzip the window covering & use two poles (10 & 30) to lift it. Tension with 2 guy ropes on each pole.
hope the above helps.

SOURCE: I need pitching instructions for
I recently borrowed a similar tent and this forum was all the instructions I had (so thanks, they helped). I have since found the instructions, scanned them and made them available to others (to view/print/download) at https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B1SdA-vKLONwZ05vTGZKdF9BTzQ
