How can I fix my Hotpoint Aqaurius Extra WMA46?

Hi I just bought this washing machine second hand as a cheap replacement, however it works fine until it spins. The drum seems to move a lot whilst spinning like as if it needs re-securing, causing it too make a lot of banging/cluncking noises.
Is this an easy fix or a common problem on these models.
Thanks.
