IRC is described on page 197 of the manual (FF8.2.0 full manual.pdf)
A small example: (molecule at saddle point geometry, $HESS group pasted from a preceding $HESSIAN calculation)
$CONTRL SCFTYP=RHF DFTTYP=B3LYP RUNTYP=IRC MAXIT=200
ICUT=11 COORD=UNIQUE D5=.TRUE. NZVAR=0

$SYSTEM MWORDS=300 TIMLIM=60000 mklnp=1 np=1 $END
$SCF SOSCF=.f. DIIS=.t. DIRSCF=.t. MAXDII=50 NPUNCH=2

$INTGRL QFMM=.f. SCHWRZ=.TRUE. $END

$irc npoint=500 stride=0.1 saddle=.t. forwrd=.f. mxopt=50 $end
