Rattle on fine / fast movements tracked down to tray that rocks very slightly. Is this normal?

Hello.  Topic says it all.  Just finished assembly and printer is fantastic!  Only nit is that there is a rattling noise when there is fine and fast movements which I believe is from the tray.  When not printing, I can ever so slightly rock and twist the tray, and I think that little bit of play is the basis for the rattle.   Is this normal?  I suspect it is bearing-related (the 3 bearings under the tray), so is there anything I should do?

Appreciate suggestions.

 

Thanks

Sorry, but what do you mean by tray? The moving bed assembly?

Yes, the X-Y.  Sorry for being unclear.
