The MD-8 mine operates with a few important parts, a pressure plate, and the ignition mechanism attached to the pressure plate. In game, when you step on the mine, you will hear the safety disengage, and the explosive armed and ready for the pressure plate to release, driving the striker to set off the charge.

If you only hear the click, you can defuse the mine.

If you hear an explosion, you’re dead.

The MD-8 can be dealt with in 2 ways, either by defusing it with the action key, or defusal by detonation. But remember, if you lie prone on the mine, it will not detonate until the player on it moves. Meaning that if you see a mine in a doorway, and you see some low levels running at it, you can jump on the mine to save their lives. If you detonate the mine, it has the same explosive properties in game as a frag, so the explosion will only kill the player lying prone on it.
