Collapsing the tent trailer

Hello,
I just purchased a used Jayco tent trailer and was told by the seller that in order to collapse the top and latch it for travel, it is best to do it in stages which takes time. I have found this to be true, but it seems like it takes an awfully long time. I'm talking over an hour at least, and then having to put some weight on it to get it to latch. I hate doing that, as it seems I could cause some damage in some way. Can anyone tell me if this is normal, or if there is something I can do to make the process easier? Thanks!
