That certainly sounds as if the bearings are not properly adjusted as there should be no discernable play.Adjusting tonearm bearings is a skilled job and if you need to ask IF they need adjusting then I think it reasonable to conclude that you do not have the relevant experience and expertise in this area. Please do not attempt this yourself as it is easy to damage the bearings and you have no way of knowing if you have set the correct loading as factory specified. It would be like like trying to set precise VTF without a gauge and not knowing what the force should be anyway.
I would suggest that you contact Music Hall for their advice.
