The "U" shaped bar does go around the tire. It should be positioned so that when you push it forward away from the frame, the tire can grab it and push it fully down into place as you roll the bike lightly backwards.
When you are ready to go, roll the bike forward and the tire will help push it back up.
Sorry I can't provide pics but somebody should be able to.
