How to use tor browser inside a transparent proxy?

Question

Is it possible to use tor browser inside a transparent proxy? I try to use the tor browser inside a transparent proxy but I can't, it gives an error. The transparent proxy itself works perfectly, in other browsers accessing onion sites and I navigate perfectly on clear a net! Here is my torrc configuration:

VirtualAddrNetwork 10.192.0.0/8
AutoMapHostsOnResolve 1
AutoMapHostsSuffixes .onion, .exit
TransPort 9040
DNSPort 9053

my rules iptables:
iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp --syn -j REDIRECT --to-ports 9040

iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp --syn --dport 53 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 9053

iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p udp --dport 53 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 9053

Output error log Tor:
warn] Rejecting request for anonymous connection to private address [scrubbed] on a TransPort or NATDPort. Possible loop in your NAT rules?

The Tor Browser gives the following documentation in tor-browser/Browser/start-tor-browser for running the browser using the system Tor. I haven't tried it, and I don't know if these instructions are up-to-date.

# Using a system-installed Tor process with Tor Browser:
# ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
# The Tor ControlPort password should be given inside double quotes, inside
# single quotes, i.e. if the ControlPort password is “secret” (without
# curly quotes) then we must set the environment variable *exactly* like
# this:
#
# TOR_CONTROL_PASSWD='"secret"'
#
# Yes, the variable MUST be double-quoted, then single-quoted, exactly as
# shown. This is used by TorButton and Tor Launcher to authenticate to Tor's
# ControlPort, and is necessary for using TB with a system-installed Tor.
#
# Additionally, if using a system-installed Tor, the following about:config
# options should be set (values in <> mean they are the value taken from your
# torrc):
#
# SETTING NAME                            VALUE
# network.proxy.socks                     127.0.0.1
# network.proxy.socks_port                <SocksPort>
# extensions.torbutton.inserted_button    true
# extensions.torbutton.launch_warning     false
# extensions.torbutton.loglevel           2
# extensions.torbutton.logmethod          0
# extensions.torlauncher.control_port      <ControlPort>
# extensions.torlauncher.loglevel          2
# extensions.torlauncher.logmethod         0
# extensions.torlauncher.prompt_at_startup false
# extensions.torlauncher.start_tor         false
#
# where the '[...]' in the banned_ports option means "leave anything that was
# already in the preference alone, just append the things specified after it".

# Either set `TOR_CONTROL_PASSWD` before running ./start-tor-browser, or put
# your password in the following line where the word “secret” is:
setControlPortPasswd ${TOR_CONTROL_PASSWD:='"secret"'}
