How to Load a Womens Frame Bike on a Yakima Hanging Bike Rack

Question

Question:

Have the worst time trying to mount bike on my rack by myself. I get one end secure and because theres no bar I cant confidently secure the other end. I bought the add-on bar and cant seem to secure that either. Do you have any visuals you can send me or really good written descriptions? Im a visual learning. Thanks.
