Sump pump behavior during storm last week

Hi all, So, I had a plumber replace my sump pump (with a Zoeller M57) when the added the backup water powered sump. I've only lived in the house a year, and never noticed the old pump running. This pump, I happened to be in the basement, and heard it kick on. Seems like it gets a certain amount of water then turns on--once the water in the pit drops, it turns off. Makes sense. What I am wondering is if the pump is pumping 'too fast'? During the storm, it would turn on, and turn off within a minute. More like withing 30 seconds. Then, a few minutes later, it would cycle like that again. I'm wondering if I need to adjust the float? Let more water enter the pit before kicking on the pump? But then, what if we have a more powerful storm and water enters the pit even faster?
