Analysis
Unable to start the engine with the electrical starter the pilot elected to pull the propeller through by hand. With the magneto switch 'off' and a 2X6 inch board in front of one main landing gear tire the engine started when the propeller was rotated. The acft jumped the board and taxied unmanned into a building and a trailer. Maintenance personnel reported finding a loose ground wire on the right magneto.
