My very first scroll saw was that exact saw 20-25 years ago. While it tended to me noisy and vibrate, it was nothing like that. The only reason I got rid of it was I wanted to larger fret work. There should be zero side to side movement. As Rolf suggested a bad bearing or sleeve is likely....
I have never seen a saw with that kind of motion. I know why they sold it. It was not a nice thing for them to do without telling or showing you the saw in motion.
