A walk-behind grinder/polisher receives removably attachable wet and dry debris collection modules. These modules are substantially rigidly attached to the frame of the grinder/polisher and suspended above a floor surface so as to travel with the grinder/polisher when coupled thereto. Each debris collection module removably attaches to a vacuum producer mounted on the frame of the grinder/polisher. An engine drives a first hydrostatic pump in fluid communication with a first hydraulic motor driving the grinding/polishing head in reversible fashion. The engine further drives a second hydrostatic pump in fluid communication with a second hydraulic motor driving the vacuum producer. The dust collection module has an inlet removably attachable to the dust collection port on the shroud, and an outlet coupled to a dust collection canister. The slurry collection module has an inlet removably attachable to a squeegee, and an outlet coupled to a slurry containment vessel.
