I am not interested in using the "phonograph".

That's just as well. The piezoelectric cartridge present will damage valuable LPs.

You should find cables from the TT to the rest of the circuitry that are equipped with RCA plugs. "Yank" those plugs and use the jacks freed up for a modern, digital, source. As piezoelectric carts. are "self equalizing" and high O/P, all may be well. However, a substantial chance of a "hair trigger" volume control does exist. If that happens, resistive voltage dividers installed across the jack terminals dispose of the problem.

Use AA Email to PM me. After a message exchange, I'll convert the schematics from PDF to a graphic form that can be uploaded. IrfanView plus GhostScript handles that chore. An alternative way of obtaining the schematics in graphic file format is to use the Windows Snipping tool, while the PDF has been opened with suitable reader software.
