The purpose of the Page_turn_engraver is to automatically insert \applyPageTurn in appropriate places. You will want either to use Page_turn_engraver or to manually specify where page turns are allowed. It's been a while since I looked at those docs, but I'm pretty sure this is mentioned somewhere.
