There are multiple belts on the Ariens A20VA46 lawn tractor. Which belt are you asking about?

Service and Owner's manuals can be downloaded from the following link: Find Manuals by entering your tractor's model and serial numbers.

The deck drive belt is easy to change by releasing spring pressure on the idler pulley (usually under a plastic cover). See the user's or service manual for directions from the above link.

The two transmission belts are somewhat more difficult, but are usually long-lasting. The newer type of continuously variable transmissions used on these tractors have a friction belt like a snowmobile but under much less load. As a result, they are long-lasting. The engine to transmission belt is a conventional V-belt and may require occasional replacement. Usually, there's a similar tensioner pulley you would release in order to replace this belt.

Well my ariens platinum sno 24 inch which is 3 years old has a rotor jam this morning and some smoke came out of it so i turned it off. What can i do?

The smoke was probably from the drive belt. You have to clear the jam first, and you may also need to replace the drive belt.

Are all drive belts on lawnmowers compatible I have ariens ride-on lawnmower

All belts are not created equal. I recommend staying with the manufacturer's belt. Riding mower belts have to take a lot of torque when engaged and a lesser belt will have much less life. You may end up changing belts several times to learn a valuable lesson.

Where can i get an ARIENS drive belt, new or used

Anyplace that sells Ariens mowers will have one. Most other lawn mower stores can also sell you one. Remove the old belt and take that and the model Airens you have to get a replacement. You do not want a used belt just get a new one.
