Default wheel is loose

I replaced the bad front passenger side wheel bearing and tighten everything. If I grab the wheel at the top and the bottom I can move it back and forth a little bit and I know it shouldn't do that after I just replaced the wheel bearing. What should I check to see what is causing this. I have a 1992 Acura Integra LS 4 door sedan? Thanks for your help

You didn't press the bearing in properly. Try again.

What is the correct way to press the bearing in. I used this tool
FWD FRONT WHEEL BEARING ADAPTORS Remove and replace front wheel bearing with the steering knuckle and strut assemply still on the vehicle. Makes jobs easier and eliminates the need for a front end alignment after the service work is done. Works on both domestic and import front wheel drive cars and light trucks. Thanks!
